> RW: “I lost about six minimoogs, a couple of Mellotrons, a Fender
> Rhodes, a huge long list of stuff. And some of it’s resurfaced. One of
> the Mellotrons, the famous double Mellotron resurfaced. And a guy got
> hold of it and rebuilt it, and that’s in a museum somewhere in
> America. And he contacted me to verify that it used to be mine, and I
> wrote back to him and said, ‘Yeah, it was stolen in nineteen whatever
> it was.’ And it completely freaked him out. He called up and said, ‘I
> didn’t steal it.’ And I said, ‘I know you didn’t, ‘because you’re
> hardly likely to have stolen it and then ring me up.’ And he said, ‘Do
> you want it back?’ And I said, ‘No, if you’ve rebuilt it, good for
> you. I’m glad that it’s got a good home, and I’m glad that it’s in a
> museum.’ So there you go.”
