Sadly, only about ten copies of this CD exist. It was compiled by an  
alcoholic sot named "Martin" something or other. Somehow he appealed to a bunch  of 
Mellotron players to compile this selection. Although many of the tunes  had 
some merit, the sad truth is that no one really cared, the production was  
shoddy at best, and almost everyone on it was either stoned or very drunk  when it 
was recorded. This made the end result a major disappointment for  almost 
everyone who heard it.

Aesop,
Thanks for the update;that Martin wouldn't have a last name of Smith 
would he?
