The Mellotron Group

My vote goes to Fripp for his work on the KC album Lizard, primarily  
on "Cirkus" and the bolero portion of "Lizard". The sound is just  
magnificent.

Too bad he stopped using the MkIIs after this album, even in the  
studio. (Too bad he stopped using them, period. I think a few  
mellotron parts would relieve the tedium that sets in because of the  
incessant guitar "chatter" in every song they currently do.)

Of course for sheer majesty, you still can't beat "Epitaph". I  
listened to it last Christmas on someone's $80k stereo system with the  
volume set on Nuclear Meltdown. The owner of the system, who'd never  
heard it before, immediately went to his computer to order a copy of  
the CD. It knocked dishes off a shelf three rooms away and I will not  
repeat what his angry wife said to us.
