One should mention that Ray only ever had a top line for a song as he played nothing chordal so the moody character of Dear Diary is all Mike Pinder.Martin
Actually, if memory serves (and it often doesn't these days), there is either bass or alto flute in this track and that part would have to be our Ray since neither voice existed for mellotron in those days. But you're right, it's a terrific song.
As an aside: if you haven't yet heard my wife's bass flute voice that Streetly has, you should. All kidding aside, it's fantastic. One of the great undiscovered voices for mellotron.
