Mellotron

Friday Mayhem 19 from 7:PM to midnite
Tales of the 8-second Orchestra: The Continuing Story of the Mellotron
Presented by Pete Dixon, Earl Grey and Joe Shlabotnik
Play "spot the Mellotron" with your hosts who continue to unearth music, both old and new, featuring this versatile keyboard instrument. Its unique character and sound was the mainstay of many progressive bands in the early seventies but also turns up in the unlikeliest of places from the mid-60's right through to the present day. As in earlier shows, expect some rarities and obscurities, together with shockingly familiar songs, that all feature the magnificent Mellotron in its many sonic guises!
