Brian Kehew and The Mellotron MKII...

[TheInnerStation]

Brian played keyboards on the ROLLINS BAND song HOLD ON for their YELLOW BLUES LP.

Is this guy related to Tom Green?

@bodhisattva87 Do a barrel roll? :)

I've been sidetracked lately with the flurry of new Optigan discs...

Sold the M2 and M1, now just the 200 model left. Works worse, sounds best!

[OFR]

I have several Chamberlins, too, but do not agree. Yes, they sound cleaner, but more like a sampler to me. Some of the sounds are amazing on the Chamberlin, but I think the Mellotron has more weirdness to the sound, and it less normal-sounding.

[The2010SnowDay]

@OFR What models of chamberlin do you have?

[textur222]

you look like tom green

[klaatu42]

Always throws me into Moody Blues land when I hear one.

[CadillacL]

The Mellotron/Chamberlin are still (IMO) the best sounding.

[EmersonsL100]

I'm not an expert in this, but I have heard that the Chamberlins were actually of a better quality than the Mellotrons. Still, that doesn't make this instrument less amazing. After all, it was used in "Watcher of the skies".

[Keijz74]

RothHandle has both. The Chamberlin uses less compression on the sound. So Mellotrons may be better in construction, but a Chamberlin sounds better.

you can hear a car alarm go off somewhere..

he's a real genius and programmed a lot of the voyager presets, amongst other achievements ;-p

[Hursty0]

whoa the name brian kehew pops up on something else i was watching and i just have to comment. i met him once hes such a cool guy.

[Sunchild333]

wow! thank you! The mellotron is my favorite instrument of all!

The Into reminds me of the final part of Lizard from King Crimson. Maybe it is...=)

[Tanvan180]

I saw him in concert, when he toured with The Who a couple years ago.

[Cozy990]

Also, i think that the tapes last little longer than the M400 wich is 8 sec. and the MKII is 10 sec....

[tarabusch]

it is an AMAZING machine....

[AutomaticGainsay]

VERY cool.
