Seems to me that long ago someone on this list claimed that they were at
the sessions for Daniel and that despite the liner notes crediting EJ on
"Flute Mellotron", the only Tron on the track was the mandolin part
(listen closely from the bridge on). Anybody else remember that?

Bob, forgive my ignorance here but are they really trying to tell us that there was no mellotron flutes on Daniel?
They're having a laugh I think.
Tell you what has just come to me though. Remember EJ's version of Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds? Some fantastic flutes and strings on this track. Dare I say that it's better than the original! I see this is being included as a bonus track on the soon to be released multi channel SACD of Captain Fantastic. Should be good.
