Mellotron Pick 3

Here is the last one of the series. My Mellotron Pick. My favorite Mellotron songs. Make sure you check out the previous two if you haven't already. They all should go together, but each playlist has been just about CD length, because that's what I originally worked with. Now you just load up the songs and play them from your phone. Try my playlists in the order I made them, though. You will see there is a little bit of genius mixed in with the madness. They are meant to be listened to in this order. You'll see. Make sure you leave a comment with any Mellotron songs I missed (Maybe there will be a volume 4 down the line).

Mellotron Pick 2

This is part two of the Mellotron pick. We go through a few decades of Mellotron songs during these volumes. It was very popular for certain bands to use a Mellotron, then it fell from favor and was reinstated. No rhyme or reason in why these bands and these songs, other than I like them (and they feature the Mellotron) The cover is similar, but click on it anyway. Notice the track numbers continue.

Mellotron Pick 1

This is the first in a series of songs that feature the Mellotron. These are my favorite Mellotron songs. For those who don't know, the Mellotron is a sampler like keyboard. How it works is interesting, but doesn't matter for this pick. I will post three volumes over the next few days. Just know that the Mellotron has a distinctive sound which you will pick up on if you don't recognize it already. Let me know what your favorite Mellotron songs are. See the Mellotron on the playlist cover.
