Rickdidn't play Mellotron on 'Sabbath Bloody Sabbath'. He plays keyboards
(no 'Tron) on 'Sabbra Cadabra', while bassist Geezer Butler played Mellotron
strings on the excellent, atypical 'Who Are You'.

A very strong album indeed.  One of my favourites by the Sabs.  In fact I 
think I'll throw it on this morning and crank it!
