Welcome to the JOE MEEK SOCIETY

The Joe Meek Society was formed in June 1990 by Alan Blackburn to remember and celebrate the music and life of legendary sixties record producer and song writer Joe Meek. The Society exists to further the interest in the music created by Joe Meek, and to keep his memory alive. It aims to bring together those interested in Joe’s music, to help them collect records he produced and to draw the attention of the public at large to the tremendous contribution Joe made to popular music. It also aims to bring together Joe’s former artistes in reunions, memorial shows etc and to actively push to get the sounds produced by Joe reissued, and to secure the release of unreleased material.
