Mellotronists

I can say for sure that a backup keyboardist had an M400 at an Elton John
show in Albany, New York, in '73 or '74, but apart from the seal song, I
couldn't tell you what it was used for - never a big Elton fan, I just went
to get laid...

And, for a real dose of quantum physics, remember that the latest edition of
how space and time are assembled is called "string theory" - yes, it's true,
3 violins is the foundation of the universe.

I have what would seem to be one of those 30 year old BBS sets of
cello/3violins/flute on my #886, and while the intonation is a bit funky on
a few notes, I've always felt that is part of the unsynthesizeable charm of
the Mellotron.  You just can't program an exact match for the idiosyncrasies
of those tapes!
