..justified ancient liberation zulu? wtf? 3 AM Eternal is awesome. I love the female voice asking "Are you ready?" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
one of my first electronic albums.. still holds a place in my heart |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
One of mine too. Along with Frontline Assembly's 'Tactical Neural Implant' CD. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I love "the white room" and "chill out" two fantastic albums. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
klf reached the top 40 back then. good times |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yay for the KLF! :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
never heard of them how do you guys listen to music with a veritable field of old gray hairs in your old gray heads |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i sort of liked their hits back in the good old days. i downloaded one or two albums maybe a year ago but never really got into them. perhaps i should give it another try... is "the white room" the right place (heh) to start? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah they do rock me ever once in a good while. "Wichita Lineman Was a Song I Once Heard" is just utterly one of the most beautiful songs. so much soul. i often wonder what they could have really accomplished had they not wasted their time showing everyone up w/ that pop star front. |
||||||||

|
|
it was mumu not zulu, wasn't it? the ancients of mumu? alfred | if you were indeed born in 1980, then how did you miss out on the klf? or did you come to music late in life? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
klf also known as the justified and ancients of mumu further known as the jams |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
also also known as : the timelords.. remember that? 'doctorin the tardis? 1988? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
3 am eternal is probably my favourite klf tune, there were some other fine ones...anyone knows why they stopped making music? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they wanted to make a statment about the music industry, by burning money and shooting blanks into the audience at award shows. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yea, and what about Last Train to Trancentral |
||||||||
| Attached picture | |||||||||
|
|||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, i remember the burning a £million incident.. so no one remember's their 'doctorin the tardis' release as the timelords? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Jim Cauty and his sound gun!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I remember thier Timelords incarnation, I remember them on SNUB TV talking about it as well, but then I am bowed under a veritable field of grey hairs. Jimmy Cauty still makes rather caustic music at , and Bill Drummond became an artist and publisher, I believe his website is still going at . The original mix of What Time Is Love? is still a fave track of mine, still eerie and moody after all these years. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the only thing i remember about this song is the cheezy "telephone" sound at the beginning. didn't Tammy Winette sing with them in another song? i had the single for it, justified and ancient eh? |
||||||||
|
|

# theyre justified, and theyre ancient.. and they drive an icecream van # |
||||||||

Chill Out! |

And when she answers herself with "here we go" :-) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The band name was, yeah, but the quoted lyric at the start is correct as it is... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've got that on video I have :-) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The White Room is a decent album, but Chill Out obviously stands as their finest work...although 1987 is very funny... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they were a revolution, sadly a short-lived one |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
pure trance originals |
||||||||

full appreciation, A+ and Fav+ |

i bought Space on ebay last night. always wanted to hear that. got LP cause i heard the CD was just one long bit w/ no track separations. i always hated it when live sets came that way. least w/ the LP i can put the needle wherever i want. |
||||||||

I find the mythology of KLF fascinating - the whole Brits stunt etc... obviously a very artistically significant group HOWEVER having not listened to them when they came out I think their music is piss poor..? Granted I have only heard 3AM. It sounds so dated. I prefer the live version they did at the Brits with Extreme Noise Terror. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
3 A.M. Eternal was the shit. and then when everyone in the US forgot about it in the late 90's, it was even cooler. like Billy Ocean cool, no joke. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
LISTEN TO CHILL OUT... (And 1987 if you like comedy) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Thought Space only came out on vinyl? Would the CD be a bootleg perchance? P.S. That's technically The Orb though innit... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
dated, piss poor or shit - it doesn't matter. they're JUSTIFIED AND ANCIENT>and they know what time is love. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Chill Out will never date |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and that's a FACT, my brother. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Can't believe it's already over fifteen years old! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The Orb, probably, who knows what you could really call it. i call it interesting. always thought Chill Out was a little over hyped (not saying its bad at all but it does get far too much praise). a longform music video could be really cool though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have got that This is what the KLF is about video...but it's just a homemade compilation of lots of TV appearances, however it does include Waiting, which made it worth it...long story... |
||||||||
|

KLF is gonna rock ya 'cos you have to move to the flow of the P.D. blaster bass ballistics I'm gonna kick this hard and you can catch it down with the crew crew talking 'bout the Mu Mu Justified Ancient Liberation Zulu Got to teach and everything you learn will point to the fact that time is eternal |

oh geez, don't get me started on the KLF! One of the greats. Yeah it does say 'zulu' and the 'the mighty zulu nation' on another song. But they were from mumu (land). Have you seen that promo/stunt thing they did where they get a load of journalists to dress up in robes, ship them to Mu, act all weird the burn a huge wickaman thing! The expressions on there faces! I think the zulu nation thing is because of the whole cosmic force / esotoric nature of the groups. KLF meant Kopyrite Liberation Front, it's from a book called The Illuminatus triology, which is apparently fact based but with some facts changed (!). Anyway, in this book the 'old guard' The KLF have amidst their global controling web of deciept, a bunch of dissenters called The Justified Ancients of MuMu or JAMMS. that is where the song 'Kick out the Jams' by Mc5 comes from. Even though it doesn't (if you know what i mean...) to cut a long story short The KLF/JAMMS in said novel are the Illuminatie (in real life), and they control the media and everything else, orchestrate wars all in the name of worshipping ancient knowledge and basing things on numerology (with all the cosmic connotations as well) Which the Zulu nation follows... that's why Bambaataa looks mad, cuz the world's just a stage maaan. Hence KLFs approach. You can see the unreleased movie 'The White Room' on youtube. as you were... |

the white album on sale today is butchered and doesn't flow right. You need to find the old vinyl to appreciate it. Cauty makes hillarious stamps these days on CNPD on line The Cautese National Postage Disservice. They very funny, and rip off banksy abit (Kopyrite Libetation etc)... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Did you read that thing recently over the interweb thingy that claimed the KLF 'designed' The Liberteens and Babyshambles, I REALLY wanted it to be true ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Excellent, I'd never seen the movie like that before, I saw what must have been the shorter version, without the begining and the end. That really is a great glimpse into the legend that is Cauty & Drummond. |
||||||||
|

"the white album on sale today is butchered and doesn't flow right. You need to find the old vinyl to appreciate it. " Do you mean the original demo version? Or is there now an edited version of what was the commercially available White Room album? |

You can get the white room on an american import but it hasn't got the audiance cheering bits (from an elvis concert appently), and the tracks just don't fit together right. God knows why you can buy this and non of the other ones. 1987 is one of the funniest albums ever. Those scottish raps crack me up! The music for the rites of mu is great as well. Dark ambience! You can get that from ebay. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Who Killed the Jams? is a very good album too, that doesn't seem to get mentioned much. But 1987.. is a classic. Taking cut and paste to new heights / lows. |
