Mellotronists

What a weird coincidence.

Less than a week ago I heard an old OMD track on the radio and thought "I
ought to post the list to find out which album I should buy first". This is
in the recent knowledge that they have been known to use Mellotron (but
mainly liking what songs I have heard) & never taking much notice of them as
a band at the time.

Then I thought everyone might take the piss so I didn't bother.

Thanks Colin, I shall order it immediately!

Another definitely "non-prog" album I really like with some good mellotron
sounds is "Drink Me" by Salad - mid 90's Dutch, slight punky edge, probably
deleted. Anybody posting an announcement that it's all samples and the
fluffy animal gets it ...
