I had a chance to work with Camel back in 2003. Tom Brislin was the keys man for them on that tour. ( he was fabulous). At NEARfest, Tom asked if he could have a couple of Yrons in his rig for the show and I obliged. As we were setting them up, Andy Latimer came over and said, "Mellotrons! Ahh, the interesting old days."
