Mellotron Promo Film

Mellotron Promo Film

2008-01-16 by Hessel Herder

Hi guys,

 

Yesterday I was finally able to see the Classic Artist Moodies DVD.

 

At around 1 hour into the film, when they’re discussing In Search Of The Lost Chord, we see what looks like footage from

some Mellotron MKI / MKII promo: we the machine cycling, keys moving, the lid sliding in , springs going up and down etc.

 

Anyone got any idea what the source of this material is and if there’s a full length version anywhere?

 

Cheers,

Yes - we own the footage.  It was shot for local television back in 1964 and Les had the 16mm film stored away.  We let Classic Artists use it for the Moodies DVD.
