Hello Rich,  Thanks for the info. I know your area VERY well,
as I grew-up in Morris Cty, NJ and attended college there.
Would love to visit this weekend, but I'm "geographically
challenged " in Vermont at present.

Did you know that Tempo music in Dover, NJ (Blackwell St)
was an authorized Mellotron dealer in the 70's ? They once
had three M400's in a row, one fitted with Warner Bros.
SFX tapes (very rare these days).

I'm alsovery  familiar with Rockaway for another reason.
The historic Morris Canal went thru Rockaway, crossing near
Main St. Sites included Inclined Plane #6 East (Stickle's Lumber
Yard) , and Mt. Hope Mineral RR . Today, there's still an 1831
stone canal-era culvert under the parking area near Main St.
Email me off-list privately if you're interested to learn more .

Have a great time Saturday, Rich !

Cheers, Jerry Korb (Mellotronist and historian of CSNJ)
