Mine would be 'My Song' by Mike Pinder on the Moodies EGBDF album;love the way his tron arrangement underscores the dramatics of the song!
That and bits from Earth and Fire's 'Song Of The Marching Children' suite.I believe most of it's done with an M300,the sounds of which I don't have in my Tron yet,but great to play anyway

Onderwerp: RE: [newmellotrongroup] Your favorite Mellotron song...?
I have always loved " Lost in a Lost World "from Seventh Sojourn and the
tron arrangement to the acoustic section of "The Question" on a Question
of Balance. The chamberlin oboe and panning strings on "Lost" really do it
for me! Beyond that just about any King Crimson song with mellotron.
I like the 3violins and Hackett solo section on "Firth of Fifth" from
"Selling England by the Pound" alot.
