Curiously enough, my favorite Mellotron appearance on any recording is the chordal solo halfway into "Can-Utility and the Coastliners." I get goosebumps just thinking about it. There's no guitarist in the world that can begin to match the naked, screaming power of that solo. The way it hangs on the low "D" nearly to the end of the tape and then explodes into monstrous ascending chords is one musical moment that never gets old for me. Positively orgasmic. That's why I give Tony a pass on a lot of other stuff, like those gadawful cat noises he pulls out of his Pro Soloist...
This was also the reason Genesis named their tune "Can
> Utility and the Trash Can Liners".
