Subject: [newmellotrongroup] Hudson Brothers cover with Mellotron #857

 
I was up 'til 3:00am recording a cover of the Hudson Brothers 1974 hit, "So You Are A Star" for the Theme Music group on Facebook. Having an allergy to digital keyboards, I broke out ol' #857 for some cello, 3 violins, and flute. Forgive my pained warbling both vocally and 'tronily.

Damn that CMC10 is noisy!!!! Gotta get an upgrade. Couldn't stablize the pitch until I was just about done. That thing takes forever to warm up and get up to speed. Anyway, enjoy!
