Perfect Recordings - Excellent Sampling of Meek's work.......2006-12-21

Basically I can't, nor do I want to stop listening to these two discs.

Great 2 Disc Overview of Joe Meek Productions.......2006-11-16

Nifty 56 track, 2 cd compilation of noted, independent UK producer Joe Meek. Contains his biggest hits in the US, "Have I The Right" by the Honeycombs, and "Telstar", by the Tornados.

The set is a great overview of Joe Meek's productions and also contains rare tracks as well. Highly recommended for any fans
