Joe Meek: Work In Progress - The Triumph Session (CD)

(RPM) 29 tracks 1959-1960

COLLECTION OF RARE AND UNISSUED MATERIAL

Between leaving Lansdowne in November 1959, and setting up the RGM studios at 304 Holloway Road in September 1960,launched the short-lived TRIUMPH RECORDS, with whom I enjoyed my first real successes as an independent producer. All Triumph releases have since become fiercely collectable, and there has been a great deal of conjecture as to what else I recorded for the label. This unique collection brings together a number of outtakes, demo's and previously-unissued tracks which produced during this period. This is essentially a collectors' release, and has been compiled from old acetates, quarter inch masters, cassettes etc. So, if the sound falls a little short of RPM's usual high standards, this is more than compensated for by the unique rarity of the material. As a bonus for all my devotees, this collection is rounded off with a few brief snatches of me at work in the studio composing a couple of my hits.

Joe Meek – Work In Progress: The Triumph Session (CD) presents no myth and no posthumous gloss, but Joe Meek at work. This CD documents a complete, raw studio session from the Triumph Studios, featuring unfinished takes, alternative arrangements and sonic experiments. That is exactly why it matters. Meek was not a producer in the conventional sense but a sound researcher, using tape machines as instruments and echo as a defining stylistic tool, exercising absolute control down to the smallest detail. Work In Progress reveals this approach unfiltered, without later polishing or legend-building. The original Triumph recordings are carefully and historically accurately edited, offering direct insight into Meek’s working methods beyond Telstar. This is not a best-of but a primary source, making it essential for producers, Joe Meek scholars and historians of British pop and studio culture.
