[Mellotronists] Re: Tron celeb's!

2004-01-29 by John Hofmeyer

He produced an album for a band called, Fireballet in
the early 70's.  

Their first album, "Night on Bald Mountain" contained
plenty of classical quotes and 're-interpretations' -
including the title track.

I loved the disc - released in quadraphonic (...yeah,
I dig the old quad recordings...)  They did a 2nd disc
- flopped - I think they disbanded...

The production of the first album was pretty damn
good.  I was curious if Ian ever worked with any of
the band members again?
