Joe Meek | The Freakbeat Singles (1964-67) [Mini-documentary]

Joe Meek was the first truly independent producer in Britain, and his DIY production techniques were way ahead of their time. Many of his productions, which were all recorded and produced at his apartment above a leather shop, became major hits in the late 50s and early 60s. And “Telstar” by the Tornados went down in history as the first British record to reach number 1 in both the UK and in the States. But when the Beatles and the Stones and the rest of the British Invasion bands appeared on the scene, Meek struggled to adapt to the new times. Most of the records he produced from 1964 until his death in 1967 either failed to chart or stalled at the lower regions of the Top 40. But Meek never lost his passion for experimenting and coming up with new sounds and some of his recordings from that era sound quite ahead of their time and have become cult classics over the years.

I absolutely adore Joe Meek’s recordings, since March 2023 I’ve been collecting singles, EP’s and LP’s produced by Joe. I hope his music will continue to be listened to in the future!

[@familydogg1234]

I am honored to be one of the early viewers here! Posted 46 minutes ago. I too admire Joe Meeks style in the studio. Sadly, he was gone London before his time . Regarding Blue Rondos Baby I Go For You- the band recorded it then Page came in later to record his part unknown to the band. There are many great singles Meek produced/wrote and alot of soon to be famous musicians playing on them. " Telstar" is still ahead if it's time . I like the film- but that's me... Thanx YP!

[@SBAYLISS]

Hi there was rumour bolan and Bowie visited meek very early in their careers on more than one occasion I wonder if any of the recordings got to a disc .

[@paulgoldstein2569]

I too admire a lot of the early sixties Joe Meek productions, but not all. But I think, although some may think different, that he was best represented on all those early John Leyton recordings. Wild Wind is in my mind an absolute classic.

[@johnnymoth]

@@paulgoldstein2569I agree with you. The album he made with John Leyton is a masterpiece

[@paulgoldstein2569]

[@spyderlogan4992]

Many years ago when I visited London, I took the 'Rock and Roll Tour' on a small bus with other tourists. And yes, we stopped right in front of his apartment while the tour guide played 'Telstar' over the small PA system and recited a short bio of Joe Meek. Gone, but not forgotten thanks to YP~!...Well Done~!

[@Robert_Presto]

Joe Meek was ahead of the times !

[@ShannonLee1956]

Joe Meek was fascinating, innovative and terribly underrated al least here in the U.S., not many people here know about him. I'm thinking this style of music freakbeat is similar to what we call garage rock. This is one of my favorite styles of music!

[@YesterdaysPapers]

Yep. It's kind of the bridge between music from the mid-60s and psychedelia.

[@jasonkillbourn]

@@YesterdaysPapers I've always thought that Gene Vincent's Bird Dogging made the leap from rock and roll to garage rock, and I believe he toured the UK with the Tornadoes back in the day, so it seems a bit of a shame that Joe didn't manage to get him into the studio, while he was over here, as that could have been interesting.

[@geraldfriend256]

Back in the 90s in Austin Kerbey Lane cafe would play nothing but that genre late at night. Good times.

Johnny Remember Me is my favourite Production of Joe Meek. An excellent single by John Leyton who also was an actor.

​@@YesterdaysPapersGreat Escape 😂

[@mndandy]

At the time of his death, Joe was contemplating an offer to became a staff producer at EMI. It would have been a completely different world from his scrappy indie productions but can you imagine some of the acts he may have gone on to work with? He would've been in full flower during the Summer of Love.

[@theculturedthug6609]

The 1970s music was made for Joe Meek. Such a shame he never made it.

[@thekitowl]

Joe started up on his own because he couldn’t work alongside anyone else. Had he have gone to EMI highly doubt Joe would have lasted a week having had hits on his own & being highly opinionated. He wasn’t a team player & we wouldn’t have these Jems from the 60’s if he wasn’t so single minded.

[@kiwitrainguy]

Britains Phil Spector ?@@thekitowl

[@garygomesvedicastrology]

​@@thekitowlI think Joe would have faced similar problems to what Clapton faced when he insisted his amp be played at full volume or that the Beatles (whose commercial clout helped them) when they wanted to do something like what Geoff Emerick did with the Beatles Revolution. Emerick had to rig the control board to allow Lennon to get the distorted sound he wanted (basically when no one was watching). Martin helped the Beatles do work arounds for what they wanted... not sure Meek would have had the patience for that...

[@thekitowl]

@@garygomesvedicastrology good point, I couldn’t see the EMI offer to Joe working on any level.

[@chrisbacos]

I really enjoyed this episode. So sad that Joe Meek took his own life. He influenced many that followed. Think Brian Wilson and Frank Zappa. He laid the groundwork for synthpop and techno. Ritchie Blackmore has quite an impressive CV. I saw the movie with Steve Marriott. It's called Be My Guest and he co-starred with David Hemmings. Please keep 'em coming and have a great 2024.

[@YesterdaysPapers]

Cheers, Chris!

[@Krzyszczynski]

Actually there were two films with David Hemmings and Steve Marriott. The first was Live It Up (also known as Sing And Swing), mentioned in this video. It was set in London and followed the fortunes of a fictional band called the Smart Alecs. Be My Guest was the second, and relocated Hemmings' screen family to a seaside town after they inherited a hotel there - the Smart Alecs reform in a bid to help improve the hotel's business.

[@Krzyszczynski]

Forgot to add that the second film featured another fictional band with one of most delightfully outlandish names I've ever come across - Slash Wildly and The Cut-throats. Pretty far out even by today's standards, let alone 1964!!

[@ghostexits]

I've always been curious about what was so remarkable about Joe Meek's production, besides Telstar, which is well known. Now I understand.

[@BegToDiffer99]

Can't say enough about this channel! Thank you,Yesterday's Papers.

[@mackb909]

Happy New Year, YP, and thank you for opening 2024 with another superb video. I knew about Joe Meek's role in The Tornados' "Telstar" and The Honeycombs' all-too-brief moment in the spotlight, with their female drummer. I was not aware of the extent to which he was instrumental in pushing the sonic boundaries in the mid- to late-'60s, facilitating the move of rock and roll from conventional sounds and structures into the mind-altering aural landscapes (and spacescapes) to follow. LIke Brian Epstein and too many others, he was persecuted for his sexuality and his general nonconformism, and died way, way too young.

[@YesterdaysPapers]

Cheers Mack. Happy new year!

A great Joe Meek mini documentary, he made some wonderful sounds which I still play to this day…..

[@boomtownrat5106]

Crawdaddy Simone “This is probably the noisiest recording of 1965.” Yes, and isn’t it wonderful! Ray Fenwick, the Syndicats guitarist, went on to join The Ian Gilian Band in the mid-70s. I love the work that he did for that band. It was more progressive jazz/rock. It was a style of music that I was really getting into at that time along with the other British jazz fusion band, Brand X.

[@YesterdaysPapers]

Yeah, Ray is great. He also played with the Spencer Davis Group for a while when Winwood left the band.

[@boomtownrat5106]

[@elmolewis9123]

What an amazing job done on research and presentation. Your videos have raised the bar for music history.

[@paulgoldstein2569]

I think the cherry in the cake here was that one by The Syndicats. It must have had the most advanced guitar techniques for 1965, really thick heavy freaky work, especially for then, with a semi wah-wah effect in the middle, about 18 months before the wah-wah pedal came in, even if the song itself is a little restrained. It is by far better than it's A side, a rather peculiar version of Ben E King's On The Horizon. If this single had been turned over, it might have charted, as the young music fans would have had a shock if they heard it, thinking they have never heard anything like it before. But both sides of that last Heinz single you mentioned were covers, I'm Not A Bad Guy was written by Jerry Allison of The Crickets who did the U.S. original. Movin' In was originally recorded in the UK about four years earlier by Danny Rivers, also produced by Joe Meek. But that Tornados' track you mentioned appears on their 4CD set Love And Fury; The Holloway Road Sessions without the overdubbed sound effects at the beginning and end, but with it's full unfaded instrumental end. That set also includes the backing track without the overdubbed clavioline lead, and the full length sound effects, part of which were used for the overdubbed hit version of Telstar. kzbin.info/www/bejne/b4aalZiArbCAZrs kzbin.info/www/bejne/fIDUiGuXoculgLc Thanks for another great video, Happy New Year.
