Archive of the former Yahoo!Groups mailing list: Mellotronists

If any of you haven't heard of this 70s Detroit Wakeman wannabe go
haunt the used lp bins for any of his earlier stuff and you'll hear
some really nice tron work,particularly on the lp IN COLLABORATION
WITH THE GODS,and LOOK DEEPLY INTO THE MIRROR.His first lp PAINTINGS
even has a cover of COURT OF THE CRIMSON KING which Mike "sings"(sorry
Mike...only one step above Doug Ingle from Iron Butterfly)and has Ted
Nugent (!) on guitar.He was at his best when doing the proggy
neoclassical instrumentals.Unfortunately none of this has seen the
light of day on CD(I just made my own from the lps).
Another funny thing is he doesn't mention the mellotron directly in
his lp credits but as "violins,cellos,flutes".Yeah right Mike.It was a
400 in plain view on the back of MIRROR lp.He has a website which I
believe is quatrophonics.com.
