Joe Meek: Kompositionen und Pseudonyme

Joe Meek: Compositions and pseudonyms

 

Joe Meek war nicht nur Produzent, sondern hat auch viele Musikstücke komponiert und/oder betextet, darunter sein zweifellos berühmtestes: Telstar, im August 1962 mit den Tornados veröffentlicht und bis heute einer der größten Instrumentalhits der Popgeschichte. Aufgeführt sind hier 220 Titel, die als gesicherte Joe-Meek-Kompositionen oder Co-Kompositionen gelten dürfen. Möglicherweise sind weitere in den Teekisten vergraben (siehe dazu auch hier) oder unter bislang nicht entschlüsselten Pseudonymen erschienen.

Meek, wie an anderer Stelle bereits geschildert (hier), spielte kein Instrument und beherrschte die Notenschrift nicht. Er hatte deshalb keine andere Wahl, als seine Einfälle auf Band zu singen. Als Notiz reichte das so weit aus, dass sich seine guten Hausgeister Geoff Goddard oder Dave Adams mit ihm ans Klavier setzen, aus dem Demo die Melodie herausschälen und passende Harmonien entwickeln konnten. Dass Meek nicht singen konnte und seine Demos entsprechend schräg klingen, sollte nicht darüber hinwegtäuschen, dass er sehr genau im Kopf hatte, wie das gewünschte Ergebnis klingen sollte, und er beendete diese Sessions nicht, bevor Goddard oder Adams wirklich das Resultat gefunden und fixiert hatten, das er in seinem inneren Ohr hörte.

Ein wirklich großer Pop-Songschreiber - wie etwa Goffin/King, Bacharach oder Lennon/McCartney - war Meek nicht. Sieht man einmal von seiner Weltraum-Suite I Hear A New World ab (mehr darüber hier), dann beruhen seine Songs in aller Regel auf einfacher Schlager-Diatonik, sein Vorrat an melodischen Wendungen war begrenzt, viele Motive kehren regelmäßig geringfügig variiert wieder. Auch zeitlich ist kaum eine musikalische Entwicklung zu erkennen; die Songs, die Meek Mitte der sechziger Jahre schrieb, unterscheiden sich melodisch oder strukturell kaum von jenen, die er in den späten Fünfzigern schrieb. Zudem wissen wir nicht, wie groß der Einfluss der Bearbeiter Goddard oder Adams auf das fertige Produkt tatsächlich war.

Manche seiner Songs treffen allen musikalischen Einschränkungen zum Trotz ins Schwarze. Meek schrieb erstklassige Ohrwürmer (Put A Ring On My Finger, Magic Wheel, Telstar, Globetrotter, um nur ein paar zu nennen), andere Songs fielen sterbenslangweilig aus oder ihre Melodien irren ziellos in der Landschaft umher (etwa With This Kiss oder The Kennedy March). Dazu kommt Meeks Eigenart, Melodien in unterschiedlichen Arrangements unter verschiedenen Titeln zu recyceln (ein paar davon sind in der untenstehenden Aufstellung in Klammern genannt, aber in diesem Punkt ist die Liste unvollständig), ebenso gern erfand er auch neue Melodien für bereits existierende Backing-Tapes.

Meek hat Stücke sowohl unter seinem wirklichen Namen veröffentlicht wie auch unter einigen Pseudonymen; das wichtigste davon war Robert Duke, das er bis April 1962 ausschließlich verwendete. In erster Linie ging es Meek darum, "Major" Banks, den Teilhaber seiner Firma RGM Sound Ltd., über seine Einnahmen als Komponist und Texter hinwegzutäuschen, da er diese vertragsgemäß mit Banks hätte teilen müssen. Später wurde diese Vertragspassage gestrichen (mehr dazu hier). Danach tauchten für einige Monate Peter Jacobs und Robert Baker auf, diese wohl eher, um die Steuerbehörden über die Identität des Tantiemenempfängers im Unklaren zu lassen. Ende 1963 schließlich schickte Meek alle seine Pseudonyme weitgehend in Pension und ging dazu über, seinen tatsächlichen Namen anzugeben.

Die Namen Aldis, Dandy Ward, Crosley und Knight tauchen nur jeweils ein einziges Mal auf; letzterer sollte nicht verwechselt werden mit Peter Knight, dem Keyboarder der Moontrekkers.

Wenn ein Titel von mehreren Künstlern eingespielt wurde, ist hier die älteste Version aufgeführt.

Joe Meek was not only producer but also wrote a lot of music and/or lyrics, among them his undoubtedly most famous one: Telstar, released in August 1962 by the Tornados and still one of the biggest instrumental hits of pop history. Listed here are 220 tunes which can be seen secured as composed or co-composed by Joe Meek. However, it is possible that further ones are still buried in the tea chests (see also here) or were released under still undeciphered pseudonymes.

Meek, as mentioned already here, didn't play an instrument and couldn't read or write music. So there was no choice for him but to sing his ideas on tape. As a memo this was sufficiant enough for his good ghosts Geoff Goddard or Dave Adams to sit down with him at the piano, listen to the demo, sift out the melody line and develop the chords. Meek couldn't sing, so his demos sounded strange, but this shouldn't hide the fact that in his head he knew exactly what he wanted, and he did not finish the session until Goddard or Adams had found and fixed the result he had in his mind.

Compared to the likes of Goffin/King, Bacharach or Lennon/McCartney, Meek was not a great pop composer. Apart from his space fantasy suite I Hear A New World (more here), most of his songs are based on simple diatonic pop melodies, his stock of melodic phrases was limited, many motifs can be heard several times in slight variations. Also in terms of time there is no real development; melodically and structurally there are no big differences between the songs Meek wrote in the mid-sixties and those he wrote in the late fifties. Besides this, we don't know how big the influence of his editors Goddard and Adams on the final compositions really was.

But beyond all musical limitations, some of his songs hit the spot. Meek penned first-rate ear candy (Put A Ring On My Finger, Magic Wheel, Telstar, Globetrotter, to name just a few tunes), other songs are dead boring, or their melodies are meandering all over the place (like With This Kiss or The Kennedy March). Not to forget Meek's quirk to recycle some melodies under different titles and arrangements (a couple of those are mentioned in brackets in the list below, but it's incomplete), as well as he liked to invent new melodies for existing backing tracks.

Meek published tunes under his real name as well as under a couple of pseudonyms; the main one was Robert Duke which he used exclusively until April 1962. In the first place Meek tried to hide his royalties from his RGM Sound Ltd. business partner "Major" Banks, because as stipulated he had to share them with Banks. Later this paragraph was deleted from their contract (more info see here). After that, for a couple of months Peter Jacobs and Robert Baker appeared, probably to shield the identity of the royalties receiver from the fiscal authorities. At the end of 1963 Meek sent more or less all his pseudonyms into retirement and turned to using his real name.

The pseudonyms Aldis, Dandy Ward, Crosley and Knight are used only one time each; the latter shouldn't be mixed up with The Moontrekker's keyboard player Peter Knight.

If a song has been recorded by more than one artist, the oldest version is listed here.
