I like the grey vinyl version (the KLF mix?) partly because of Pete Wylie's sullen vocals and also the harsher, tinny production. But the full 10 mins "Part 1" of the 1991 mix is probably in my top three of all B & J's tracks. And the Morris dancers on Top of the Pops was their high point in TV appearances, I think! In the end, I think "IGUN" is the one Bill and Jimmy track which has a crystal clear concept - and doesn't rely upon listeners knowing about either their history or the "Illuminatus" trilogy. It must be the only B&J song to have not one but THREE parodies of it (Living Carpets, Hardcore Outlaws and the Mad Jocks).

there is a bit of ricardo da force footage on there with him recording vox, not black steele!! ======================================== Message date : Jan 24 2005, 01:40 PM >From : "John Milne" To : "All bound for Mu-Mu Land." Copy to : Subject : Re: [KLF] Track in the background Welcome! Not seen the interviews for a while, but an otherwise unavailable track called "The Sherriff of Mu Mu County" is in there - there's actually footage of Black Steel (?) recording the vocals in Trancentral. "The Sherrif" itself is a remixed (stadium housed?) version of "The Lover's Side", itself an unreleased Maxine Harvey track from the 1989 White Room soundtrack. Apart from "Kylie Said to Jason" and "Born Free", it was the only 1989 album track not be remodelled and appear on the 1991 "White Room" in a different form.

I'm new to the list, but, I've been enjoying the threads - especially the reminiscing! The interviews on brandnew.co.uk are excellent - does anyone know what track & mix is in the background while Jimmy is talking in 02: The White Room? _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself with cool new emoticons http://www.msn.co.uk/specials/myemo

RE: [KLF] OT Orb/ Clockwork Orange

If you like that sountrack try this too. Waltor Carlos followed the 'Clockwork Orange' soundtrack with 'The Shining'. Lots of use of early synths again but much lower pitched, scary, sombre, funereal in sound. Disturbing stuff and a good reason for the movie's fear-inducing. Took me a while to get a copy on vinyl off of Ebay as it out of print. The opening track is Carlos's take on the 'Witches Sabbath' from Berlioz's 'Symphony Fantastique'. _____________________________________________________________________ This message has been checked for all known viruses for Frontline Ltd by the MessageLabs Virus Scanning Service. _____________________________________________________________________ This e-mail message and any attachment(s) are CONFIDENTIAL and may contain legally privileged information.

I once saw LX Dee DJ-ing in a "Clockwork Orange" t-shirt. And didn't he used to end DJ sets with "I Wanna Marry a Lighthouse Keeper"? Also, Orbital used to open gigs with the title track from "Clockwork Orange". Ahh ... dear old Wendy/Walter.

Re: [KLF] Re: "New" Bill Drummond/Wild Swans remix
by John Milne 21 Jan '05

I tried to order it off Amazon but drew a blank. Ebay seems to be your best bet - and in the UK, second-hand shops. Try the label "Viper" as well. Strangely, I only found one reference to "MBD" being a Bill Drummond remix on this CD - and even then it suggested that it was the "St. Petersburg Remix". The label Renascent (www.renascent.co.uk) recently released a two-CD Wild Swans rarities compilation (with some sleevenotes by Bill Drummond). And hopefully a new one will be planned with b-sides etc soon - maybe even the Drummond remixes. Finally, www.skyray.co.uk, Paul Simpson's site, is issuing a CDR as a limited edition with demos and rarities from the "Spaceflower" sessions in 1989. Again, it's possible some of Drummond's work (alongside producer Ian Broudie) could turn up on that. Of course, the reason why Drummond worked with Simpson was, as he is often quoted as saying, the Wild Swans were his "favourite band ever" (and their debut "Revolutionary Spirit", released on Zoo in 1981, was his favourite single).

OT Orb/ Clockwork Orange
by Matt Schieffer 21 Jan '05

21 Jan '05

All I know of this song is that it is playing when Alex returns to his paren'ts house only to find "Joe" his replacement sitting next to his parents. A very funny scene, actually. I had read that LX was gonna remix this song, and was very excited. What ever happened? Oh, and one trippy fact is that I read the lyrics are slightly varied in the movie vs the soundtrack, like to f**k with your head I guess. Lately, I've been cranking the March from Clockwork Orange, ever since I heard the clip where Kraftwerk used it live I've been obsessed with finding it, and I did. Did you know that the March is the first recorded song ever to feature the use of a vocoder. -- http://hydrallus.blogspot.com
