Subject: Genesis and Fripp's Tron

Forgive me if this is well known, but I was browsing through a very large book on Genesis in a Wellington book shop at the week end and I came across a paragraph dealing with the group's mellotron.

Apparently they bought a Mark II from Robert Fripp which he insisted was the very one used to record "In the court of..". However Tony Banks remarks that at that stage Fripp owned 3 trons and he reckoned that Fripp said that about all of them.
