1. JUDAH JOHNSON "Kisses and Interrogation" (Flameshovel Records,
Chicago) DIG 004 Confirmed Mellotron on the song "The Ruse" played by
Dave Shettler. Light strings in the background; overall an
interesting melodic soft CD with some drawn out and deep moments--not
prog, tho'. www.flameshovel.com

2. Jesse Syles and the Sweet Hereafter "Reckless Burning" (Burn Burn
Burn Recordings, Seattle BBB-005) Light Mellotron strings in the
background on the song "Don't Let Me Go" played by Steve Moore.
Another light pop record with ethereal leanings and soft, but
sometimes dark vocals. Jesse has done some great overlooked material
in the past. www.jessesykes.com

Both of the above CD's have plenty of harmonium too. I just picked up
a 1967 LP on Elektra by Tim Buckley...also filled with harmonium.
