This one looks at “Telstar” by the Tornados, and the tragic life of Joe Meek, Britain’s first great pop auteur.

Apologies for the lateness of this one — my two-week break got extended when my computer broke down.
Patreon backers also have a ten-minute bonus episode available, on “Wipe Out” by the Surfaris.
