@dr wu long song, but definitely beautiful.

Had no clue Steven Tyler played Mellotron.

As many times as I have listened to Dream On, I knew there was piano but not a Mellotron. I definitely hear it now that I’m aware.

Deffo a great piece of hardware, and a nifty invention that the likes of Brian Jones put to good use. Mellotron maestro here(Mike Pinder) at IOW Festival 1970.
