The Mellotron Group

Selmer Concert Clavioline (as per Geoff Emerick). I do not believe that
Lennon played it by rolling a lemonup and down the keyboard as is rumored.

Funny, I just read that Al Cooper used Ondioline on "Meegan's Gypsy Eyes"
on the first "Blood Sweat and Tears" album. Very similar sound. I don't
hear any gliding on the Beatles track but I'll listen again. Never heard
of the Beatles using Ondioline.

Nope.  No oboe on a MKII.  Trombone as it 'appens.

Clavioline on BYARM? No that's a  common misconception repeated everywhere.

A Clavioline doesn't have  gliding note capabilities.

It's an Ondioline .
