Subject: [Mellotronists] Found another tron song...Hi, y'all.
Was feeling a bit nostalgic for the '60's earlier tonight and popped The Ultimate Peter and Gordon into the CD player. Lo and behold, the last track (#20) is a cut titled "Jokers", recorded April 1967 at Abbey Road prominently featuring MkII Mellotron Brass and 3 Violins, likely played by their buddy and tron enthusiast, the late Brian Jones, who also plays harmonica on the same track.

Another obscurity unearthed! Well spotted, Frank. OK, here's one for you all - name a late-'60s UK band in the psychedelic-ish region who didn't use a 'Tron at one time or another. My vote, despite arguments to the contrary, goes to the Hollies. And yes, I've heard 'Dearest Eloise', and can't hear any Mellotron.
