This group is for everybody who loves music that features one of the best keyboards ever made: the MELLOTRON!

In the late 60s, groups like The Beatles, King Crimson and The Moody Blues introduced the Mellotron to rock music.
Now it was possible to create an orchestral sound without any "real" instruments, because the mellotron could play-back tapes with original recordings of violins, brass, choir, flutes, vibes and many other instruments.

Especially in the early 70s the Mellotron became very important for the progressive rock movement and was used by many musicians - as a result it can be heared on nearly every record by ProgRock giants Yes, Genesis and King Crimson.

Even today a few bands use a mellotron because of its unique sound, e.g. Anekdoten, Liquid Scarlet and Oasis.

    Check out "Simon Dupree & The Big Sound". They used a lot of mellotron sounds in some of their songs from the late 60's

    God, when talking about Mellotron the first thing that comes to my mind these days is "José Cid - 10.000 anos depois entre Vénus e Marte(album)" I'm even surpresed that it's not on the related artists, it's a masterpiece

    I want to introduce Mellotron application for iPhone & iPod touch that I made. The sounds sampled from Mellotron M400S (serial number 714) manufactured in the 70's. Great sound & fun! I believe that you love this application. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Ov7i7Hz5LI

    'Watcher of the Skies' by Genesis is the best use of a Mellotron along with King Crimson's 'In The Court Of The Crimson King'. However someone please please please remove the Oasis reference about mellotrons, satans own plagiarists dishonour the Mellotron with nasty little single note squeely 'melodies' in their crap strummy pub rock. Gallagher shouldn't be allowed to taint one with his touch ever again!

    Music with a properly handled mellotron instantly becomes twice as good, at least! All warm and cuddly...

    John Martyn appeared on German television In March ‘78 to promote the album One World. The live concert included songs from the album alongside classics such as May You Never, Glistening Glyndebourne and Solid Air. The song, I’d Rather Be the Devil is also included, but due to limited time, was edited out of the show. For more info, visit: http://johnmartyn1978dvd.com/

    Fans of Rick Wakeman have long wanted a visual document from some of Rick's classic solo shows from the seventies and the eighties and the Wakeman Video Vault. The boxed set includes some of his greatest performances including King Arthur on Ice, Live at Wembley Empire Pool 1975, and 1984 filmed at the Hammersmith Odeon in 1981. www.wakemanvideovault.com
