Gadzooks Cranksta', haven't heard that for ever and a day. Anything this brilliant that features the 'tron is thumbs up territory for me. Brilliant play, sir!!
@21schizoid Thanks. I was trying to recall the 1st time I heard a'Tron', thought it was 'My Brother Jake' by Free, then heard 'Kites' by Simon Dupree this week and realised it must have been that. Was going to jam it but thought this was a better example of a great instrument.
Either of those others would do fir me, sir. However, for sheer MellotronGargantuanWonderfulness, ye cannae top... https://youtu.be/EnyxmxM26E4
I shall hear no debate... ;-D
Haven't heard this for years - I was a big OMD fan at school - AND Genesis' early stuff, inc Foxtrot. (Them and the Jam - that was my three...) And now I've learnt about the Mellotron...cool :)
