RAY CATHODE (GEORGE MARTIN) "TIME BEAT"
ORIGINAL AND HARD TO FIND 1962 UK RED PARLOPHONE LABEL RELEASE.
IN 1958 THE "BBC RADIOPHONIC WORKSHOP" WAS CREATED, THE PURPOSE OF THE WORKSHOP WAS TO PRODUCE NEW MUSIC AND SOUND EFFECTS FOR BBC RADIO SHOWS AND TO MEET THE EVER GROWING DEMAND FOR THE "RADIOPHONIC" SOUND.
THE WORKSHOP WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR CREATING EFFECTS FOR MANY WELL KNOWN RADIO SHOWS INCLUDING "QUATERMASS THE PIT" & "THE GOONS" SHOW. LATER THE WORKSHOP WOULD BEGIN PRODUCING THEME TUNES FOR TV SHOWS AND WENT ON TO PRODUCE ITS MOST FAMOUS THEME TUNE FOR "DOCTOR WHO".
IN 1959 MADDALENA FAGANDINI JOINED THE WORKSHOP FROM THE BBC ITALIAN SERVICE.IN 1962 SHE JOINED FORCES WITH ONE GEORGE MARTIN AND TOGETHER THEY REWORKED ONE OF FAGANDINI'S INTERVAL TUNES "TIME BEAT" INTO AN ELECTRIC DANCE TUNE.
THE TRACK WAS ISSUED AS A SINGLE RELEASE IN THE UK BUT UNDER THE PSEUDONYM "RAY CATHODE", THIS WAS THE FIRST EVER SINGLE RELEASE FROM THE RADIOPHONIC WORKSHOP BUT IT ACHEIVED VERY LITTLE SUCCESS IN TEH UK.
THAT SAME YEAR GEORGE MARTIN WOULD MEET THE BEATLES.... AND THE REST AS THEY SAY, "IS HISTORY!"
OFFERED FOR SALE IN STUNNING CONDITION IS AN ORIGINAL AND SOMEWHAT RARE UK PARLOPHONE RED LABEL RELEASE OF "TIME BEAT" BY RAY CATHODE.
