Re: [Mellotronists] OFF TOPIC (Mellotronic content restored)

Andy K,

The liner notes to Madman Across the Water do indeed credit Rick Wakeman 
on organ on three tracks - Razor Face, Madman Across the Water, and 
Rotten Peaches. But I agree that there is no Tron on the album. But lots 
on some of his later work.

Seems to me that long ago someone on this list claimed that they were at 
the sessions for Daniel and that despite the liner notes crediting EJ on 
"Flute Mellotron", the only Tron on the track was the mandolin part 
(listen closely from the bridge on). Anybody else remember that?

Sorry Colin.

Bob S.
