"Big Eyed Beans from Venus...don't let anything get in between us."

The Capt's "Clear Spot" album.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I read on one of the older Melloton websites that Capt. Beefheart used a mellotron "the way it SHOULD be used".

The guy posting said he hated when "ellotrons wereused to ape strings..."

He suggesed listening to Beefheart's "Doc at the Radar Station" ...to hear how a mellotron should be used.

I did.

I couldn't find any mellotron on it.

Is that one of those Mellotron newbie left -  handed monkey wrench jokes...?
