New Mellotron Book

2008-07-25 by Mike Dickson

I've just today received my copy of Nick Awde's book 'Mellotron: The
Machine and the Musicians that Revolutionsied Rock'.

It's enormously thick - about 600 pages - and features a large number of
interviews with all the usual suspects. It as three notable ommisions
(by the author's own admission), being Robert Moog (dead), Rick Wakeman
(busy) and Robert Fripp (on being Fripp). I'm still ploughing through
it. So far it's an interesting read, even if the author felt the need to
interview Tony Banks and Mike Pinder. :-)

Mike
