The Tornados - "Love And Fury" 

BETTER than Telstar in my book and in my TOP 10 recordings of all time..... Joe Meek is a GOD in music history

This is an all time classic, it is a timeless gem, they made such great music

I am 60 today.. I was 3 years old when this great group did Love and Fury, telstar and so on..... brilliant.. thank you guys.. still listening your music !!

This is their best track and maybe Joe Meek's finest in this style. The guitar break is sublime! Trance / Dance / House music of it's time..... CLASS!

Love this group my father played them all the time on key board. Also Heinz just like eddy. Amazing 😂😁😂😁😁😂😂😂

Back in the day (1961?)I was a Tornados fan from hearing this on fading radio Luxembourg bought all their singles and most of their LPs. Fast forward 55 odd years who's playing at my daughter's wedding George Bellamy and "Lyrics" small world lol

I had USA Telstar album when I was 10 yrs old. I lost it many years ago. I have not heard this favorite in over 40 years. Thank you for placing it on here. I thought no one would ever remember the Thunder birds. I'm glad I was wrong. Many memories with this music.

a brilliant first release, drivin powerful, shame it wasn't a hit, sublime production from Joe Meek

" Joe Meek decided that the backing band should make their first record, which would stake their claim as challengers to The Shadows. In tribute to Billy (Fury), Joe wrote Love And Fury, and named the backing group The Tornados, from a line in a John Leyton B-side. (Line-up 1) George Bellamy (rhythm guitar), Heinz Burt (bass guitar), Alan Caddy (lead guitar), Clem Cattini (drums), Norman Hale (organ, not in tour group, added for Love And Fury)." From Billy Fury - The Story

Norman Hale plays the organ in this song, Roger La Vern joined the band later.

I heard it on Radio Luxemburg MW 208 metres in the beginning of the 60ies.. shure bring back memories.

Wow real outer space atmosphere in here! Awesome song!

This could've been the blueprint for Telstar but imo it stands alone on its own merit. Too complex to be a hit at the time but that fade out is genius.

I wish it didn't fade out like that, ending is awesome.

@IStillLoveLucy111 Interesting. I knew Roger in the Seventies, but for some reason, we never talked about the BAND (I must have been BARMY!) Anyhoo, "Love And Fury" was - as far as I know - their first single. "Telstar" was their second. I'm sure Roger was on THAT one - but Wiki says you're RIGHT: Norman Hale was INDEED keyboardist on "Love And Fury". So I've amended the info panel accordingly. Thanks.

the first and the best

Alan Caddy great.

Does anyone know which organ was used on this recording? It doesn't sound like a Clavioline or a Univox. Reminds me of the organ sound used in the Cryin' Shames' Please Stay.

I think all the others are on it. Telstar also featured a largely uncredited Geoff Goddard on clavioline. In fact, Roger's organ performance - which was shown on their filmed performances - is barely audible on the record. It's Geoff's clavioline that forms the centre of the number. But I guess that's showbiz. Whether Geoff and/or the clavioline are on THIS piece, I know not. Anyone?

I love drinking whiskey and playing all theese great tracks on u tube

Great and brillant!!! We have own version. LOVE and FURY (czech Láska a Hněv).💗👏👌👍🙂🎖️💯🎶💓💞

WoW, is that good or what?

The prelude tune to the great Telstar.

THIS WAS MY FIRST FROM THE TORNADOES.

For my money this is far better than Telstar. The b side 'Popeye Twist' is great too.

norman hale...did he play elsewhere..imfo appreciated

Better than even the great Shadows. Loved the Tornados.

What childhood memories....when i took m'y father's singles

Becks Bolero

this was a great track sadly a non charter...

I like the cover by the Renegades V better
