I loved working with PJ Proby. He was a great guy. You never knew what he would do next. You didn’t sleep on his sessions. It was all about feel and where he felt the music should go at any time. It could all have been very different had he accepted one drumming job offered to him by Brian Epstein, manager of a certain quartet that went onto rewrite musical history and set new standards bands are still following. While John, Paul, George and Bobby doesn’t have the same ring to it, if you pardon the pun, as John, Paul, George and Ringo, his future may have brought a lot more fame had he joined The Beatles after the ousting of Pete Best from the drum stool. An inquest jury found Meek deliberately killed Mrs Shelton, who ran a leather shop with her husband downstairs.

Cattini was born in London, England. He started playing drums in the early 1950s when he was 16 years old and became a professional musician in 1954. In 1955 he started playing with Kenny Graham’s Afro-Cubists, where he met his future long-time friend and colleague, Joe Moretti. The group played around England and in Germany. In addition to his recording career, Cattini has been a member of the touring bands of Cliff Richard and Adam Faith. Cattini’s work also includes drumming on two singles by UK pop singer Kim Wilde – “Cambodia” and “Kids in America”. Cattini lives in Surrey, England. He has a son, Lee, and a daughter, Tessa. But it was incredible, the sounds he could get out of that studio, the equipment he used and what he recorded Telstar with. Modern equipment could not get anywhere near it.As a session drummer you can get a bit bored sometimes. Especially the third session in a day, when you’re tired and want to go home. But that’s when you’re on autopilot and you know that you’ll do the job people want you to do.” Can you tell us more about this person?

I used to pull Clem’s leg about it. The pressures had sent him a bit mad. He felt he would meet the spirit of Buddy Holly [if he killed himself]. And it speaks volumes that Ray Davies, lyrical and musical powerhouse of The Kinks, called on Graham 40 years later for a “fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants” session, which included a reworking of ‘You Really Got Me’.

Arbiter added: "Weimer was ahead of his time, and he developed a lot of die-cast stuff in nice, ship-shape forms. We did quite well with Trixon, but drumming was getting heavier and Trixon started to make some silly mistakes." By the early '60s, Arbiter says he eased away from Trixon because of quality problems. "While the hardware looked OK, it wasn't too strong. The nut boxes would come off, for example."

In 2016, he recorded a new version of the 1960s hit "Telstar", with the North London ska band the Skammers. [6]
