I tried that with 2 cuts of this picture: http://img1.musicfield.jp/ex11/20050626/9/9939_0.JPG I extracted the big 2K part of it, converted it to 16-shades-of-grey, then ran it, result: The whole Compacta family. Then I extracted the 'JUSTIFIED ANCIENTS OF MUMU' out of the sleeve, which is more characters so should give a better match, and it now only gave 3 options: - Kenyan Coffee Bold: Looks a lot like it, but the middle of the characters is moved a little bit up. Still, a nice font too... - Compacta Bold LET - Looks the part! - Compacta SH-Bold - Somehow the 'A' and 'M' seem to match better, but the characters are placed too close to each other, something which Photoshop can fix very easily ofcourse. Personally, I'd say the Compacta SH-Bold has the best 'boldness' to match the KLF's characters, just add some percents to the character spacing and you're done!

Is this the KLF font?
by rheenen＠home.nl 22 Nov '05

I read the article mentioned on the list a while ago: http://news.independent.co.uk/people/profiles/article328380.ece and couldn't help but notice this particular piece of text: "Drummond himself has produced 30-odd paintings..." -snip- "...The content is text, all in the same font, Trade Gothic Bold Condensed." So I looked the font up on the Internet, and it looks quite like the KLF font we all know: http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/linotype/trade-gothic/bold-condensed-no-20/ Could anyone confirm this? I know we had this other font that looked a /lot/ like the KLF font, but it wasn't exactly it, right?

And do these restaurants have Bills? Ooh ... spooky! :-) On the other hand, what about Cauty? Anyone have a Cauty Crescent in their locality? I've always thought it's an unusual name. Sounds like it came across from France with William the Conquerer (or King Boy C, as he was then known).

Presentation

Hi everyone! I recently decided to join the list. I'm 27 years old and live in Sweden. I have been collecting KLF records since 1991. They are quite unknown here, but people around my age seem to remember them. The only song they play on the radio nowadays is "jusified and ancient". Before I got the internet it was a difficult task to find a KLF record, specially on CD! Coma records did quite a limited pressing it seems... Well that's it for now! Cheers, Mange __________________________________ Yahoo! Mail - PC Magazine Editors' Choice 2005 http://mail.yahoo.com

Live "Chill Out" from a couple years ago
by James Mason 21 Nov '05

21 Nov '05

Does anyone have a copy of this? Someone (don't remember who) played a live version of the album at the Big Chill festival (I think?) I remember signing up on their webpage to be notified when the set was going to be released, but I haven't heard anything in a very long time and actually forgot just who it was. Any light would be illuminating... Jericho

Aquarium

I went to London today, and checked out the Aquarium gallery, some nice stuff there, out of my price range now I am a poor student again. There were some stickers in the display cabinet, but I was told they were not for sale, shame as they would have looked good on my Vespa!
