They did. The mellotron even made it onto the albums on a few of the
early ones. I seem to remember a lot of mellotron on Mirage. But of
course they changed to stringers early on.

I've never heard the audio track used for this overdub. It is very
different from the album version. I wonder if it was made specifically
for the video. Very cool flute solo and violins instead of the usual
stringer.

I liked this track so much I bought it off itunes, seems very similar to the version on Echoes.
