V.A. Joe Meek, And His Magic Wand, Part. 9, Vols. 49-54, 1964 (2) - 1965 (1)

 


Pues primera entrada de este nuevo año, y seguimos con la serie dedicad a Joe Meek, que con la tontería nos va a ocupar todo un año, aunque ya solo quedan dos partes mas para finiquitarla.
La verdad es que esto de poner cada parte una vez al mes da tiempo para la reflexión, y así casi sin quererlo nos hemos plantado ya en 1965.
Me sorprende de este señor el que va a lo suyo, ajeno a las modas imperantes en el Reino Unido, totalmente subyugado a los nuevos sonidos de gente como Beatles, Rolling Stones, Kinks, Animals y demás que todos conocéis.


Pero Meek, poco, o nada quería saber del beat, estilo del cual hay un gran vacío en su obra o incluso del primer R&B británico, aunque esporádicamente si que se implica en canciones de este estilo. También arrancaba con fuerza en ese 1965 el posteriormente llamdo "Freakbeat", del que también encontramos alguna muestra, aunque pocas.
Las bandas instrumentales que eran su fuerza en los primeros años de la década, poco a poco se van apagando y quedan los rescoldos de grandes bandas que tuvieron momentos mejores.
Por lo demás siguen los solistas de corte clásico, modernizando un poco su sonido, aunque no en exceso y nuevas bandas a las que Meek les da su inconfundible sello personal.


"Honeycombs" y "Heinz" siguen siendo sus grandes apuestas y se volcaría en ellos.
Todo ello hace cuanto menos un conjunto interesante e imprescindible para entender lo que se cocía en las Islas en esa época.
Nada mas, os dejo ya con la lista de canciones, que habla por si sola:

Tom dijo...

Hello Jose, a happy new year for you!! Many thanks for this further part of Joe Meek productions!!I like this sound and hear it with great joy!!Fantastic for example the early songs of Tom Jones!!Thanks for your great work!!!Greetings Thomas

jose kortozirkuito dijo...

Hi Rob:
I also find the number of volumes that have appeared incredible, and there are still eleven to go.
When I started, I thought it would be much shorter, but after researching and with the help of several friends, things have lengthened. I started it almost three years ago.
Cheers
José

Hi Thomas
For me Tom Jones and Lulu are the two great disappointments in British music. They started off in a spectacular way, full of strength, but they allowed themselves to be devoured by the music industry. Although in return they became millionaires.
The series continues...
All the best.
Thomas

Hi, when I enter "The four initials of the blog name, in lower case" I get an error message.
"Incorrect password for Joe Meek\Mee9,49-54.rar"
I must be entering the wrong letters, but maybe I'm stupid and don't understand what letters to use. Please help!!

The first of "tommenton", the first of "en", etc.etc
