Born in Jersey, Adams began working with Joe Meek in 1958 and continued to work with him until Meek's death in 1967.[1] In the early 1960s, he helped build up Meek's studio. Adams recorded singles with Meek under various pseudonyms and wrote songs for him. Adams was part of the production of the hit single "Telstar" by The Tornados; a "second stage demo" of him playing the tune exists. He was also a member of Heinz Burt's backing band, The Wild Boys, along with Ritchie Blackmore.[2]
Adams later lived in Buffalo, New York. His daughter, Dee Adams writes and performs music as a solo artist, with a country-rock band, Dee and the Housecats, and with a jazz band, The Funny Valentines.
