The Telstar Man
A close up of the SO7225 : House with black plaque showing the details of the plaque. Between the 26th and 28th October 2007 the first festival in the memory of Joe Meek was held in the town. The pioneering British record producer and songwriter died 40 years ago in tragic circumstances and is best known for his hit track ‘Telstar’ performed by The Tornados. This was the first record from a British group to reach number one in the US music charts.
