In A Mellow-Tron: One of the articles shared yesterday at https://www.facebook.com/CKCUFM/ is a nice article on the Mellotron. For the uninitiated today's lesson is an introduction to the Mellotron and also a progressive rock sampler of sorts.
Created in 1963 in England the Mellotron was modeled after the Chamberlin being a tape loop machine that runs a magnetic tape loop over a tape head to create a sound as long as the key is pressed. The Mellotron was a staple of early progressive rock scene used extensively by The Moody Blues, King Crimson, Genesis and many more
