A very interesting idea pno !!

It may take some work to identify which songs have a mellotron on them (and how about the 'birotron' ?!)

Somethin to think about in any case ... 8)

I found this on google. I'm a total computer klutz and don't know how to create a link so you'll just have to type it in.

I agree with pno74 on the mellotron stuff!!.
A great sounding instrument!!.--Birotron is a little good too!, but, not like mellotron!!.
Kind of hard to sort all of that good out.
Strawbs, Mike Quatro, have great prog mellotron.
Not to forget the Moodies!!!--Where it started!!.
LOVE Mellotron stuff!!!--A big part of good Prog , I say!!
A great idea pno74!!

Hello,

Yes a very good stuff.

I suggest you a canadian album :

Harmonium : "l ' heptade"

In my sense the top of mellotron song usage.

:) :)

Hey...
What's up with this idea?
Has it progressed any further?
Any chance of a 24 hour [glb][glb]mellotron/birotron marathon[/glb][/glb] anytime in the near future?

It's 'on the cards' GG but is proving to be a tricky one to compile ... In the meantime, if anybody has any (further) suggestions as to music that could be played, feel free to post here 8)

Hi Dee!
You could consult this excellent website (as earlier submited in the forum) for ideas - just browse through the reviews section - they usually highlight the songs with the optimum 'tron usage. ;)
