RE: [Mellotronists] Yessongs DVD

2003-04-07 by Gene Stopp

But - did Taurus pedals exist at the time the Yessongs tour was filmed? I
think they came later... (better go dig up the DVD!)

Also, does anybody have the physical details of what appear to be Mellotron
stands? A casual guess about their purpose would be to elevate the trons a
bit for easier playing...

And more generally, here's a question that's probably come up before, but
here goes - why 35? Why not 37? What was Harry thinking?

He's been known to play Moog Taurus pedals with his hands.

I managed to pick up "Yessongs" on DVD this weekend and noticed that, during
the ending of "Starship Trooper" I see Jon Anderson next to the drum set
playing some sore of weird "keyboard".  Does anyone know what that is?  I
don't know if it is some sort of bass pedal or what.
