Re: Is there anyone out there?

As well as those already mentioned, a few other possibilities that 
spring to mind would be:

Brian Eno

Manfred Mann

David Bowie

Robert Wyatt (the first Matching Mole album boasts some gorgeous, and 
unusual, 'tron playing)

Ian McLagan

Paul Weller

Ron Mael

members of other Britpop/indie bands who have used them in the last 
few years (e.g. Gomez, Radiohead, Stereolab, Air etc)

Simon House (ex of Hawkwind who used the 'tron on Hall of the 
Mountain Grill / Warrior on the Edge of Time)....


Tony Swettenham
M400S #581
