39259 beautiful sound. That's probably what the songs sounded in Joe's head to start with, and if so, we can call him great artist, as he pulled to reality what was lying deep inside. Lovely sound RhUmbUs 2005-04-21 13:07:21 2005-04-21 13:07:21 4 43971 This bunch of demos is a fascinating and often jarring look into the mind of one of the most underated and clever record producers of the last 50 years. Recommended for anyone interested in Joe Meek, 60s recording techiques, or recording/songwriting in general. Fantastic!

I'm glad it's been put out there for all of us to hear. Many thanks to the crew that assembled this gem.

Maybe as difficult as it was to listen to them for the first time :) ...but so worth it, if your tastes include unique, eccentric takes on pop music. I'm tempted to say "Long live the wackos!" but there just aren't many around anymore...and, like Joe, wackos don't tend to have long, happy, and/ or successful lives anyway. I feel sorry for the landlady, but listening to Joe Meek's music has made my life a bit stranger and happier. Thanks again to all responsible. thanks Sollipsist 2008-05-22 16:53:21 2008-05-22 16:53:21 5 this stuff is great! i had no idea it was available anywhere. meek's my favourite producer, hands down. x:) amazing moontrekker 2008-11-11 05:23:22 2008-11-11 05:23:22 5 6 4.00
