Description

Telstar is the story of the world’s first independent record producer, Joe Meek. He was a maverick genius who enjoyed phenomenal early success with Telstar, the biggest-selling record of its time, before bad luck, depression, heartbreak, and paranoia forced him to murder and suicide. This stranger-than-fiction true story is a brilliantly sharp and beautifully observed satirical comedy.
