BTW, this isn't exactly OT. Remember his "Superbly Played Mellotron Codas" on Ear of Beholder.

Jim,
You're right, my mentioning of Lol Coxhill's passing is not necessarily OT not only because of the slight use of the Mellotron on "Ear of Beholder", but because he was a musician, and "I think", that all music posts are generally accepted on this list ?
However my guess is, regardless of how eclectic he was, that Lol's style of playing is an acquired taste, and may not be appealing to many of the members on this list ?  So that may be the reason that I prefaced the heading of his passing as "OT".
He will be missed, that's for sure...
Robert
