While progressive rock has always been associated with unique instruments, many would argue that one of the "proggiest" instruments is the mellotron. I certainly have always loved the sound and often specifically looked for bands that used it.

I am curious as to how other "veteran cosmic rockers" feel about this progressive rock staple. Tony Kaye, for example, did not like it and didn't want to add it to his sound while in Yes, just prior to Wakeman's joining the band.

If you like it, please list some tracks that you are particularly fond of.

A few of my faves are Beyond by the Moody Blues, Flying (The Beatles- I know, not truely prog), Without Words (Clearlight) and Premoli's use of it on the early PFM albums.
