Archive of the former Yahoo!Groups mailing list: Mellotronists

Where's the footage? I'm assuming this is on Pinder's official site
imbedded in the forums as a link...

I had never visited Pinder's site before. Excellent--especially
considering I had thought all this time recently he had been quite
reclusive. I had always wondered why he left the Moodies--was it the
wear and tear of traveling, or did he just feel he was running out of
creative ideas and considered himself a floundering member of the band?

The Mellotron story he told nearly moved me to tears. What an
adventure to work in the very factory making those things (let alone
being the talented keys player he is), and with the Streetly crew, of
whom I've always had the impression as a great bunch of witty folks
very much involved in keeping these creatures alive.
