The Mellotron Group

I don't know about the cape, didn't get one when I got the Mark V and these tapes were in 
my Mark V when I got it.  So it must have been extra or the original owner kept it.

However I can play excerpts from "Six Wives of Henry VIII" since I have a Minimoog on top 
of the Mark V......  ;-)
