Thanks tothis wonderful list (and Dick Greener’swonderful Strawbs list - http://www.strawbsweb.co.uk), I decided to ask John Hawkenabout the tron sounds he used on Hero and Heroine.Here is his answer:
>Thanksfor the e.mail - glad you've enjoyed some of themusic I've been involved with down the
>years.
>Luckyyou, located in "Mellotron Heaven" on theWest Coast - I STILL regret parting with my 400
>(and my Mini Moog) when I left England in 1979.
>As forthe sound on Hero & Heroine, I only recall using the Brass tapes, no organ.Of course, my
>memorycould well be at fault - after all, it WAS 30 years ago.
>I havejust today received the Mike Pinder Mellotron CD ROM - a gift from my friend & webmaster
>Ron Linderboom. I will be using it on the proposed Strawbs re-union tour later this year. Hopefully,
>we shallexperience all the great sounds but none of the quirky reliability of the realthing.
>Bestregards
>John Hawken
