Mellotron Makeover

Tune in to the latest episode of The Vicar Chronicles to see and hear the mighty Mellotron that was used in the recording of In The Court of King Crimson.  Crimsonman has emailed to ask "Is the Spanish guitar lick Punk plays really from a Beatles song?"  The answer is yes.  The very same lick can be heard at the beginning of The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill from The White Album.  It can also be heard on the Improv from KC’s Plumpton Festival sgig, 9 August, 1969, as loving captured on the Epitaph boxset.
