My name is Robbie Duke. I’m famous for being Joe Meek’s assistant and his last recording artist, under the name of "Patrick Pink." I was in the right place at the wrong time on February 3rd 1967, when Joe Meek committed suicide. Otherwise I’m just a normal guy who always wanted to be a pop singer. I may well have made it but for Joe Meek’s death. Thanks to this site, I have the opportunity to put my songs out to the world; here are two songs I made in my own right. On my site are some photos taken during the August 2007 filming of "Telstar", Joe’s biopic, in which I play a cameo part. The film also features my wife Elaina. Also, I feature in the new documentary A Life In The Death Of Joe Meek. I am now writing my first book about my life and the time I worked with Joe Meek. I am also seeking more work in the film industry, any offers please?
My wife Elaina gave birth to our baby daughter Josephine on the 28th January 2008 at 23:58. She is adorable, piccies on my site now.
Please feel free to look at my photos and read my blogs. Don’t forget to comment!

Hi there Robbie Duke. Just letting you know I have a new song on my page right now called "Reality Check", from my nearly completed debut CD. I would love you to have a listen and send me some feedback when you get 5 minutes (or 3:59 to be precise!). Take care
