The big Mellotron track for me was "The Dead Girls" from 1986's The
Pacific Age. That one is scarey and thick with Mellotron. Strange--I
never think of Orchestral Manouevres In The Dark as a ∗Mellotron∗ band
per se, but associate them a bit more for the Kissing The Pink/Visage
crowd using some darned interesting keyboards along the way. To hear
them attempt Architecture & Morality would be worth a long drive off
the snowy high chapparal through to the nearest city on their tour to
see. I hope they will attempt Dazzle Ships as well.
