Coll Audio backline rental delivered MK-VI #019 to this stage without a tape frame! Just a prop but nice to see it. I don't think there are any mellotron sounds used in the recording of this song. Funny eh?

Thanks Chris. If you think about it, The Moody Blues, Manfred Mann and ELO all did fake lip-sync videos with a mellotron just for show. I'm sure there are a few others.

Yeah your right!!


I've recently watched some 'Midnight Special' clips on YouTube of various 70's bands.

There's no doubt that some of them are lip synching.

Truly 100%  live music seems to be a thing of the past.
