Re: Pinder solo

Hi Andy   Off The Shelf is a shortened version of Among The Stars ( same songs from Off 
The Shelf are on the latter plus additional tracks.) I believe Mike played real tron on 
"Waters Beneath The Bridge" (also found on the Mellotron Album) as it was an older song/
demo from the 80s. There's a lot of tron strings on the rest but done with his own 
personal samples (and they sound really nice,btw) but again most of the music is a bit 
MOR for my tastes. No prog epics here......

he long disposed of his machines by then? Ta!
