Strange Advance - Worlds Away. Sounds like Bowie with gobs of 4-Track Mellotron. The tremolo strings are probably real strings on the studio recording. Live, they used the 4-Track with a tremolo effect. (and gobs of dry ice fog and blue lights). Goosebump city.

Although I think the 4-Track did have tremolo strings available...I believe Dave Kean references this in one of his Mellotron videos.
