The Mellotron Group

We seem to have some stories and information available regarding a few 
of the people who recorded Mellotron sounds way back, but I've never 
heard anything about the original eight voice choir - who they were, how 
they were found, how they were recorded, etc.

I still think it's the best sound to come out of a Mellotron, so I'm 
really just curious about this. Anyone know?
