Everything I read is spot on true.
One thing though:
The boy used that Lowrey home organ in a really original and rare way
on that song I confuse with the other one.
His use of the EMS Synthi / vcs3 is impressive to many of us synthi wonks.
His Arp work emulating orchesteral beds (not the leads and ordinary
stuff) is again impressive.
I don't know if it was Townsend or company help or Glyn, who will try
anything his non tron contributions are far above average. Some ems
and arp types say brillliant.
Keeping in mind everybody gad one hit song in their minds and every
idiot has at least one profound thing to say (or offer).
The Bee Gees (Robert Stigwood Band) Mellotron work was not real
impressive to me I'd say being eclipsed by Beggars Opera of a factor
of 1000%
