Contemplating sale of KLF Vinyl- Advice please
by Thorpe1uk＠aol.com 17 Aug '04

17 Aug '04

Right guys, after collecting and loving the work of the KLF since the glory days, I am now considering flogging the lot. Times have changed, needs have changed, and I've got all the music on CD and mp3 if ever I want to hear it. Question is, has anyone out there sold off their collections and later regretted it? I'm seriously in two minds about selling but don't see the point of the stuff gathering dust when it could be buying my imminent bundle of joy a better cot or push chair. Next question is, which is the best method of sale. Private to list members or bang it all on ebay? I have pretty much everything ever on vinyl, right back to WKTJ and 1987 (original non-boot!). Advice please before I lose an impotant part of my youthful years for good. Thanks Tony

Nice one John As inventive as ever with your searches and questions. Isn't the net great for going off at a tangent. I see in the Stockwell history says that in 1948 500 West Indian migrants were housed in the newly constructed deep bomb shelters. What a welcome to Blighty for them. ____________________________________________ This OUTBOUND message from Frontline Limited has been checked for all known viruses by the MessageLabs Virus Scanning Service.

Cyberstalking Lost in My Mind
by John Milne 17 Aug '04

Thanks to Andy for the information on Trancentral's address. A surreal moment of cyber-stalking has thrown up this: http://www.mail-archive.com/britdisc@csv.warwick.ac.uk/msg01138.html. The people who live there now (and maybe bought it off Jimmy) seem to be frisbee enthusiasts! And also, here's where the KLF moved to next: http://www.stockwell.org.uk/Word/historyshorts.rtf (St. Michael's Road - presumably, Jimmy moved there after the "Benio Over and Out" mix of LTTT before moving to Brighton) Also nice to see that the pinnacle of Stockwell's history is ambient house (and that Trancentral doesn't seem to have turned into flats). Yours, Avid Merrionly, John -- Whatever you Wanadoo: http://www.wanadoo.co.uk/time/ This email has been checked for most known viruses - find out more at: http://www.wanadoo.co.uk/help/id/7098.htm

>> has anyone on this list got any of the burnt £50 notes? >From what I gather, the money was found on the beach the following morning by locals. I think this was reported in the Glasgow "Daily Record" at the time. There was also some involvement by the Police. A Western Isles PC (sadly not called Neil Howie) was interviewed on a Channel 4 "Great Rock'n'Roll Scams" programme years later. He had attended the site of the burning the following day - and was apparently a big fun of "J&A" (he sung a bit to camera on the show!) Also - didn't Bill and Jimmy used to throw parties for the Juran locals in the aftermath of any stunt they pulled on their island (Rites of Mu, Waiting filming, the burning, etc.)? John PS - Back in the early eighties, Bill organised a tour for Echo and the Bunnymen of the Scottish Hebrides. Does anyone know if McCulloch et al played Jura that time? -- Whatever you Wanadoo: http://www.wanadoo.co.uk/time/ This email has been checked for most known viruses - find out more at: http://www.wanadoo.co.uk/help/id/7098.htm

I know it's not the same, but there is also a book called "Watch the K-Foundation Burn a Million Quid", written by the Guardian journalist who was present at the burning, and illustrated by shots from Gimpo's film itself. http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/tg/detail/offer-listing/-/0954165659/al… Maybe one of the 2nd-hand sellers could get it to you for Saturday, you could copy some of the photos onto transparencies, get an overhead projector and - hey presto! the first ever KLF lantern show!
