That Melloman is a piece of work! My wife and I went on an Internet tour of early electronic music. She was delighted by the Theremin and wanted to have one.
Have you had time to listen to the Beatles’ Anthology albums? I really adore all the “behind the scenes” stuff on those.
Oh, and Steve nearly made me piss my pants.

Yeah - the Theremin is cool! How about a kit? You should rent the movie too.
I used to own those Anthology CDs but sold them for cash when I was laid off a while back. The video special was great. I need to rewatch that (and replace the discs). As a recording geek, you should check your local Borders for the Beatles recording sessions book. The store near me has a paperback version on the remainder tables (the original hardback is rare and goes for hundreds of bucks these days).
Steve…man, the
