AN IN-DEPTH EXPLORATION OF THE 60s POP ICON'S WORK WITH JOE MEEK. Includes A Whopping 75 Previously Unheard Recordings! Alternate Versions And Demos Of The Hits 'Johnny Remember Me', 'Lone Rider', 'Son This Is She', 'Wild Wind' And More! Plus The 'Two Sides Of John Leyton' Album In Never-Before-Heard Stereo! With 4,500 Word Essay By The Joe Meek Society's Craig Newton. All Material Taken From The Original Tapes And Restored And Mastered By Alan Wilson At Western Star. Moving seamlessly between TV and film studios and the recording studio, John Leyton cut a series of masterful pop singles during the early 1960s, often tied in to his on-screen work. Embellished by Joe Meek's inventive production and the writing talents of Geoff Goddard and others, he quickly became a firm favourite on the pop scene, complete with his "lonely" outsider image. 'Lone Rider' brings together the highlights of John's recordings found among Meek's legendary Tea Chest Tapes. From early and alternate versions of well-known hits, never-before-heard stereo masters (including the entire 'Two Sides Of John Leyton' album), demos, session outtakes, instrumentals, rehearsals and a number of previously unknown songs, this is another remarkable window into the world of Joe Meek's independent home studio, situated in a first floor flat on North London's Holloway Road. Heard for the first time in pristine studio quality, this material is presented here as intended and shown the respect it deserves, expertly curated and presented chronologically and in context. A must for fans of British pop history, Meek's productions, pre-Beatle pop and students of the remarkable recording innovations of the 1960s. We continue to explore the Tea Chest Tapes, and remain committed to making as much of Joe Meek's remarkable work available as we possibly can in the quality it demands.
