MICHAEL QUATRO

2002-11-07 by charel196

If any of you haven't heard of this 70s Detroit Wakeman wannabe go 
haunt the used lp bins for any of his earlier stuff and you'll hear 
some really nice tron work,particularly on the lp IN COLLABORATION 
WITH THE GODS,and LOOK DEEPLY INTO THE MIRROR.His first lp PAINTINGS 
even has a cover of COURT OF THE CRIMSON KING which Mike "sings"(sorry 
Mike...only one step above Doug Ingle from Iron Butterfly)and has Ted 
Nugent (!) on guitar.He was at his best when doing the proggy 
neoclassical instrumentals.Unfortunately none of this has seen the 
light of day on CD(I just made my own from the lps).
  Another funny thing is he doesn't mention the mellotron directly in 
his lp credits but as "violins,cellos,flutes".Yeah right Mike.It was a 
400 in plain view on the back of MIRROR lp.He has a website which I 
believe is quatrophonics.com.
