Subject: [Mellotronists] Zeppelin tron.Does anyone know whether the machine in question was an EMI one? Only, when I discovered my beaten up machine rotting away in some basement in Kensington a few years ago, the seller reckoned it had spent its last working years at the country retreat of Jimmy Page.The seller of my M400 reckoned it was 'ex-Crimson'. Yeah, right. Zep's M400, at least in '73, was a standard white one. To my knowledge, that's the machine used on the studio 'Rain Song' and 'Kashmir', although I believe 'Kashmir' was easier to perform with the MkV. Wasn't that the prototype one? Looks quite different to the production model.Andy T.
