Joe Meek remains a legendary figure in the British music industry, a 'mad genius', a pioneer but with a flawed personality that meant working with him could be a tempestuous time.
Mike Berry and The Outlaws recorded together and separately for Meek and were two of his most successful acts.
Mike Berry went on to have other hits and make his name as an actor in Are You being Served? and Worzel Gummidge.
Members of The Outlaws included highly rated drummer and session musician / producer Bobby Graham, Chas Hodges who later made a name for himself as one half on Chas & Dave and on one track on this CD, guitarist Ritchie Blackmore was a member.
Included in this twenty-two track package are the instrumentals The Outlaws recorded, two of which were hits, along with tracks on which they provided the backing tracks for Mike Berry. Including 'Tribute To Buddy Holly' and his Top 10 hit 'Don't You Think It's Time'.
This is classic Joe Meek produced pop music from the very early sixties and is the first time the artists have been compiled, in any sort of depth, on one CD.

ReplyDeleteMany thanks.
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU
ReplyDeleteThank you
ReplyDeleteThank you very much. I just want to mention that The Outlaws recording of "Valley of the Sioux," backed with "Crazy Drums," was among the first 45s I ever picked up (though, admittedly, that was at a charity shop, and it would have been in the early- to mid-1970s, when I was about 14 years old.) To this day, "Crazy Drums" remains one of my all-time favorites. It's certainly one of the wildest-soundest instros that I've ever heard!
ReplyDeleteMany thanks for this greatful upload in Flac!!!
ReplyDeletefantastic Pixeldrains! Where's Jancy today?
ReplyDeleteThis is the second time you’ve asked this question without even introducing yourself. Imagine this situation - a stranger comes to your house and asks “Where is your friend?” What is your reaction? I'm sure you ask, "Who are you?"
DeleteI don’t know who you are and for what purpose you are interested in this issue. Let's start by introducing yourself and explaining to me the reasons for your interest. Although I already answered a similar question - My good friend Wolfgang didn't answer any of my last letters. And there are reasons for this...
tnx for downloading
