Mellotronists

Did anyone listen to his clip? I did, liked it.and privately told him so. I
don't recall seeing him post anything before, so I have to wonder why he
left.

I kind of like the cut...   but, the tron sounds are a
perfect example of the differences between the real
thing and not the real thing...

Kind of sounds like Wakeman 2003....

Roc..  You are correct...  I didn't mean to
generalize..

Mr. Arnold's mellotron samples (his own words) sound
nothing like a mellotron...

Mr. Zappa is fine...   or just Dave...
