Chamberlin is used a lot on Aimee's solo material---vibes, violins, sax, cellos. I am almost positive that Patrick got his Chamberlin tapes from Dave Kean and used some of the 'tron set, especially the cellos.
Patrick is most closely associated with Michael Penn - He's been with Michaelfor many years. I don't know about the tapes, but I know that Michael boughthis first M1 new from Harry Charmberlin. More or less all of Micheal'swork includes Patrick and the Chamberlin. Some may remember his biggest hit"No Myth" circa 1989. I highly recommend all his work.
If you do buy Aimee's "Lost In Space" make sure you get the single CD for "Humpty Dumpty" (was included when I bought my copy of the album)---the two extra songs on it are worth it and are slightly more polished and uptempo.
You can listen to the entire "Lost In Space" album on aimeemann.com in anyof RealAudio, Windows Media or Flash. It's not CD quality, but good enoughto decide if you like it.
