Subject: Re: [Mellotronists] what's up with anonymity ?

I did realize that, perhaps, some folks (err, folk in some
English speaking countries) may think they would be inundated
by requests to purchase their instruments.

np: Starless & Bible Black

Several tunes with "3 Violins" (...excuse me, but I've
switched from martinis to Budweiser). I've recently started
dating a violinist, with whom I've been swapping CDs. The
first disc she brought over was Jeff Buckley. I've heard it
before, but didn't realize there was so much mellotron on it!

I took her to see Zappa plays Zappa, last week. She claims
that the show was worth 4 CD exchanges. I think the first
exchange will be the aforementioned 'Starless...' - though
she did seem interested in my "H to the He" Van Der Graff Gen
album. Don't have on CD, though.

whatever happened to the Charisma label?
