Archive of the former Yahoo!Groups mailing list: Mellotronists

Back in February we were trying to figure out who played the
Mellotron on "All the Falling Angels". Was it John Hawken or not? I
have just been reliably informed that, yes, it was the maestro John
Hawken. The track appears on the Illusion album "Enchanted Caress"
but was actually performed by Keith Relf's NoW. (The history of
Renaissance/Illusion etc., is rather complicated.) Illusion's
earlier album "Out of the Mist" is one of my all-time favourites and
there is Mellotron on several tracks. People who like Renaissance
and 1970s BJH should enjoy it. Aidan
