@reverend @soulexpress The following paragraph is from "Shake It Up Baby! Notes from a British pop music reporter" (2016), a memoir written by journalist Norman Jopling (a great read, by the way!):
"While in Britain [in 1964], Phil expressed an interest in meeting Joe Meek, who could be loosely called his British equivalent. Meek refused to see Phil - typically, in case Phil stole his "secrets". Years later, shortly before blowing his own brains out with a shotgun in 1967 after killing his landlady, Meek expressed regret that he hadn't taken that opportunity to meet Phil. He'd since realised that they were birds of a feather."

Joe Meek is one of the greats behind the scenes.
He developed the so-called Wall of Sound in his studios. Today, we are all so used to it that songs older than the 60s seem empty and unfinished to us. You really have to learn to listen to “old” music.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxyN3b1bs-w

On December 22, 1962 the #Tornadoes became the first British group to have a #1 record in the US when they hit the top with “Telstar.” The song was named after the world's first communication #satellite launched by the US earlier in the year and preceded the #Beatles chart debut by 13 months.
