My daughter and I recorded this on Boxing Day:

It isn't too bad until #1565 comes in with distressed 3 violins in the chorus, for the faint hearted this is the tronless version:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhaP0xlaoEY

And last of all a song which only has the word mellotron in it:

Wishing everybody on the list a happy, healthy and prosperous new year.

Living in Florida / Your Mellotron

2010-12-30 by Robert

Hi Andy,

I'm from and have lived in Miami-Dade County all my life. Do you live anywhere close by ?

I am not a mellotronist buy I love all mellotron sounds; not just the most popular sounds that are mostly used. I have been a serious music collector for about 40 years and love all styles of music. I joined this forum about a year ago, mainly for the purpose of learning a little about mellotrons from mellotronists. I have learned a lot although some of the technical discussions have been "over my head".

For over 3 years, I have been "searching" for somebody in the area I live who owns a working mellotron and that would be willing to let me see and hear it "in person"; no luck whatsoever. I believe I need to do this in order to determine whether owning a real mellotron is "right" for me.

If your M400 mellotron needs major work, I recommend that you contact "Frank2" in Virginia (he has already corresponded with you through this forum). I am confident that he will do you right, and that your mellotron will function, play, and sound beyond your dreams. Just a thought...

Happy New Year !

Robert

Thank you Robert. Just a thought... why not make a day of it and drive to Tampa and visit Tony. I'm sure he would be happy to show you his Mellotron.
Happy new year.

Sure that would be fun!
Set you guys with some incredible, local Cuban soul food!
Nothing like a freshly made Cuban sandwich and a stuffed potato with hot sauce!
And the Mellotron is here too, lol.

Ah Cuban sandwiches! A fellow that worked for my dad turned me onto them. (He was on one of the last planes out - his father was a doctor.....) I think the secret is in pressing/smashing them.

The bread has a lot to do with it, pressing for a warm sandwich, non for room temp.
Swiss cheese, ham, a mix of mayo and mustard, salami thin and a couple of pickle slices.
The stuffed potato rounds (no pun) it out.
And it's time for lunch!

I'm from and have lived in Miami-Dade County all my life. Do you live anywhere close by ?

I am not a mellotronist buy I love all mellotron sounds; not just the most popular sounds that are mostly used. I have been a serious music collector for about 40 years and love all styles of music. I joined this forum about a year ago, mainly for the purpose of learning a little about mellotrons from mellotronists. I have learned a lot although some of the technical discussions have been "over my head".

For over 3 years, I have been "searching" for somebody in the area I live who owns a working mellotron and that would be willing to let me see and hear it "in person"; no luck whatsoever. I believe I need to do this in order to determine whether owning a real mellotron is "right" for me.

If your M400 mellotron needs major work, I recommend that you contact "Frank2" in Virginia (he has already corresponded with you through this forum). I am confident that he will do you right, and that your mellotron will function, play, and sound beyond your dreams. Just a thought...

Happy New Year !

Robert

Yes, but the Cubans used to make them have to be ripe.

Sure that would be fun!
Set you guys with some incredible, local Cuban soul food!
Nothing like a freshly made Cuban sandwich and a stuffed potato with hot sauce!
And the Mellotron is here too, lol.

Thank you Robert. Just a thought... why not make a day of it and drive to Tampa and visit Tony. I'm sure he would be happy to show you his Mellotron.
Happy new year.
