In Memoriam
Geoff Goddard 1937-2000
Telstar Web regrets to inform you that one of the all-time great RGM artists, Geoff Goddard passed away on May 15, 2000. He was 62 years old. Geoff started working with Joe Meek in 1961. Joe initially signed Geoff as a piano player, intending to promote him as "Anton Hollywood". Geoff went on to write more than thirty songs for RGM Sound, including "Johnny Remember Me", "Tribute To Buddy Holly" and "Wild Wind". Geoff was a recording artist in his own right, releasing four singles, "Sky Men" being the most enduring. Geoff also appeared as a session musician on hundreds of RGM recordings. It was Geoff who played the organ and Clavioline on the official version of The Tornados' multi-million selling smash hit, "Telstar".
