That was a Clavioline. Most notably used by Joe Meek on Telstar. Variations of the instrument used by Max Crook (Musitron on Runaway) and Al Kooper (Kooperfone on No Time). The Beatles used the Mellotron on Strawberry Fields and Brian Jones on We Love You and 2,000 Light Years.

@StevieVanZandt We saw @JohnLodgeMusic at Jane Pickens theater Newport last year, I got to meet him after show, I told him my daughter doesn’t hear music like my husband and I did. Very nostalgic.
