Intro

Mellotron

Keyboard instrument that reads tape loops of recorded instruments to generate sound. It also has preset loops of full bands. The Mellotron was developed in 1963 as a somewhat illicit copy of tape-based Chamberlin instruments stolen and brought to the UK by a Chamberlin salesman. Prominently featured on 'Strawberry Fields Forever' by The Beatles and 'Space Oddity' by David Bowie, in addition to many other rock recordings of the 60s and 70s.
