Philip/all


Just been listeneing to the Rolling Stones 'Beggars Banquet' and
noticed that it contained two tracks with Mellotron on it.

Stray cat blues has a virtually un-audible use of mixed brass by
Brian Jones in a similar style to the 'We Love You' single.

I also noticed that the song 'Factory Girl' features MK II mandolin,
You'll have to listening carefully though because it's mixed in with
a real fiddle, but it's definitely there.

Does Andy Thompson welcome such info for his Mellotron web sight?


He certainly does! Many thanks for that - I'll go back to the album and give
it a closer listen. Some time back, someone told me they thought they could
hear it towards the end of 'Jigsaw Puzzle' as well.
