David Watts

Any chance of getting the right Tornados in the picture. Dave watts organ, Rob Huxley guitar, Rog. Holder bass Pete Holder Ryth Guit. Otherwise known as the new Tornados. The guys in this picture had nothing to do with this record.CheersDave Watts

Ian Strange

Do you know I had no idea what "see you down the dilly" meant when I recorded the voice for Joe Meek! I was more concerned about getting Joe to let me play a slightly jazzy piece on the organ. I don`t think he noticed what I was playing as he was giggling so much when we did the over dub with the talking.  I think it was me and Rob Huxley who got done here as we didn't`t have a clue that it was something to do with gays. I guess under the circumstances I`m glad the picture on Utube is not who actually recorded it.Dave watts (Keyboardist Tornados)

everyone thinks i listen to cartoon music, I feel bad they have no clue..this is the tornados, im sorry you never got to experience them! Incredible.

John Barry

Incredibly subversive at a time before legalisation, I would love to know If Joe Orton had heard this before his sad death? The line about meeting at the "Dilly"refers to the Infamous Piccadilly circus Gents. Fascinating character was Mr Meek!!!!

Jonathan Bridge

Translation: Joe Meek, legendary producer of avant-garde pop music, he managed to make this song, the B-side of a pop group produced by him, the Tornados. The song is an instrumental piece, "Do you come here often?" where the final camp chat is in a bar at the time! (P.R.)

Joe Meek, leggendario produttore di musica leggera d'avanguardia, riuscì a fare di questo brano, il lato B di un gruppo pop da lui prodotto, i Tornados. 
La canzone è un brano strumentale, "Do you come here often?" dove il finale è una chiacchierata camp in un bar dell'epoca! (P.R.)

Hands up if Stuart Maconies BBC Radio 2 show 'The people's songs' brought you here. A really daring track to make in the 1960's, when being gay was not the done thing. However, I suspect that it's content went right over the heads of most of it's listeners, much in the way that 'Julian and Sandy' from the BBC's 'Round The Horne' did. Say what you will, Joe Meek was a genius, and more people should know that. Respect!

David Watts

For a start the guys in the picture had nothing to do with this record. Why I ever played that bloody lawrey organ like that I`ll never know. I sound like Sandy Mcfearson on heat. Dave watts Keyboards

@mingrelian It was actually an improvisation between two straight guys and one of them Robb Huxley says they received no instruction from Meek on what to say. I think people have read what they wanted to into this.

A decided change of pace for band and producer. It works!
