 Dear All,

Top of the Pops Aug 2nd...

Strange sight of a white M400 beingused (without mains lead!) on a track that seemed to have real stringson it. There's a wicked irony in there somewhere.

The track was Shakira (possibly speltdifferently) and current ly No. 3...

All the best,

She does use mellotron. I know 'cause she did a live gig for theFrench Music Video Network in Montreal this past June and used my FX Console.Sadly, I couldn't be there and had to ask Pierre Veilleux to handle themellotron wrangling duties. They started out only wanting to use 3 violinsand cello, but that soon changed when they heard what else was on the menu...

Cheers!
