Big Beat is proud to announce that we have recently accessed one of the most worthy vaults known to UK 1960s rock history: the archives of producer Shel Talmy, the man behind ‘You Really Got Me,’ ‘My Generation’ and dozens of other signature records of Swinging Britain’s mid-60s glory days.Everything on “Planet Beat” is drawn from the first generation master tapes and comes with copious illustrations and notes by compiler Alec Palao. A feast for anyone interested in the golden era of British beat.
