I was aware of at least Sysyphus; I have all three albums though I
don't listen to them real frequently. My comment was an approximation
in that the 70s material they're most known for doesn't feature
Mellotron, even though its keyboard heavy and other prog groups used a
lot of Tron around that time.

Well, at least it turned into a Mellotron thread.
