I am working on my Will today. Fun job! I was wondering if any of you old farts have made provisions for your Mellotron. I have a large, environmentally controlled room here, and I promise that I will take very good care of her. (They are all female by the way, high maintenance!). Under "Distribution of Estate Assets" - "Bequests" Just put Mellotron serial #____, Beneficiary: Clay Eccles. I would be happy to help you with the paperwork. Clay

The leader of a little-known band from Backofbeyondsville, US, died, and was allegedly buried with the remaining copies of his band's stupidly collectable album. Two collectors were *apparently* all for exhuming him to retrieve the rare vinyl (do they know nothing about bodily fluids?), although I believe it never happened. For which we should all be truly grateful. Andy T.

I am to be a father any day now and I have decided to raise my child to appreciate the Mellotron from the get go. Lullabies played on the tron, prog rock played around the house constantly. I thought about it being used as a changing table but maybe that would be too dangerous. (no Formica on mine, but if it did...)Will Streetly be able to provide parts and service to my kid 50 years from now? Yeah, I plan to live a long time.

That would suck. Really, the closest thing to immortality - a rare (collectible) record - and they bury it with him! I'm going to be buried in my pinball machine. -jh --- Andy Thompson <andy.thompson@...> wrote:
