Archive of the former Yahoo!Groups mailing list: Mellotronists

Just a short announcement that M400 871 is among the living again.
Toured extensively in LA during the 70's and 80's long past
fashionability, it was then relegated to scaring the bejeezus out of
trick or treaters at Haloween. For reasons involving some kid asking
me about Crimson, I recently hauled the beast to a local High School
where brain damage insued among the players in the band room. Thus
inspired, I took it upon myself to return the instrument to its former
glory and status as a working instrument - with great success. These
Mellotrons are great intruments, to be judged not in terms of
synthesizers but of the true intruments which reflect what mankind and
expression of the inner workings of music entail. enough
