Mellotronists

How about chapters in chronological order?

The Beginning - Harry and his inventions, the UK connection, the machines
themselves

The First Years - Beatles, Moodies, BJH, etc.

The Golden Years (or, the "Explosion") - King Crimson, Yes & Wakeman,
Genesis, Refugee, SF&F, Tangerine Dream, PFM, Focus, England, Tomita,
Synergy, Gentle Giant, Fireballet, Il Balleto di Bronzo, and dozens
(hundreds?) of other Italian/German/English pre-disco bands

The Quiet Time - Richard Burmer, IQ, more Tomita, machines getting snapped
up for little or no money because of the Advent Of The DX-7

The Resurgence - Anglagaard, Landberk, Anekdoten, RMI, Spock's Beard, etc.,
machines being maintained and provided by the snapper-uppers mentioned above

something like that...?
