[Heeplist] Twin guitars and the Hammond

[Shawn Mctopy]

One keyboard I love the sound of, and you don't hear much of this
instrument nowadays, is the Mellotron.


It's a big part of the sound of ... the sound of classic - *MOODY BLUES!*


I like it on *'Wake Up (Set Your Sights)'* on *The HEEP's* first album. I
really love that mellow & jazzy ending on the song!
