Meek, Joe
Hits From 304 Holloway Road
Though he's been dead for nearly 50 years, Joe Meek remains one of the most fascinating and influential figures in
British pop music. A brilliant and prolific producer and songwriter -- despite his inability to either play an
instrument or read music -- Meek also happened to be an occultist, paranoiac, suicidal depressive, and, to top it all
off, a murderer. Though only 37 at the time of his death Meek left a large body of work rivaled only by his equally
inspired/insane competitor across the pond, Phil Spector. This brand new collection on Wax Love brings together 18 of
Meek's finest early '60s pop productions back to life on vinyl, the format they were made for. Features performances by
John Leyton, Mike Berry & The Outlaws, Geoff Goddard, Neil Christian & The Crusaders, Screaming Lord Sutch,
Moontrekkers, Tornados, Danny Rivers, Cliff Bennet & The Rebel Rousers, Michael Cox, Pat Reader, Ian Gregory, Tony
Victor, and Carter Lewis & The Southerners.
