The Mellotron Group

Satie tends to polarise.  I love it but know many who find it tedious  and 
ponderous.  They are wrong in my book and Mike knows I share his  
fascination.  Musical mnimalism can be a hard pill to swallow but Satie  makes it 
easy....for me.  Arvo Part also hits the spot but not Philip Glass  or Arthur 
Pottle.  Especially Pottle, the nicotine swilling, Vodka smoking,  utterly 
confused twat.

That's perfectly okay. 

However, I fail to see how anyone can fail  to be entranced by Satie, and 
even more puzzled why anyone can be antipathetic  to it. I find it perhaps 
the most mesmerising music I have ever  heard.

Just want to apologise for the comment below, I had had  a few beers when I 
sent it, and I allowed my personal antipathy to the  music of Erik Satie to 
get the better of  me.
