Stones & the Mellotron 1968

2003-02-17 by Philip <philipjamesjohnston@yahoo.co.uk>

Hi there!

I had a listen to 'Jigsaw Puzzle' and there defintely isn't any 
Mellotron. There's the usual acoustic/electric guitar, bass, piano , 
drums and Brian Jones playing a recorder or moroccan flute with loads 
of reverb on it.

What about the slightly distorted harmonica at the end of Jumpin' 
Jack Flash? Could that be Mellotron? I've never heard the MK II 
harmonica sound(or does it even have it?) so I thought i'd ask.

But I think that there's just the two tracks from the Beggars Banquet 
album (Stray Cat Blues & Factory Girl) with MK II Mellotron on it.

Best wishes

Philip
