The Orb's abandoned debut "Space" LP
by John Milne 20 Sep '05

20 Sep '05

While browsing for early Orb information, I came across this 1992 discography: http://www.textfiles.com/music/DISCOGRAPHY/orb.txt Note that if you scroll down, it lists "Space" as the Orb's abandoned debut LP, along with an intended song selection (some of which can be found on later bootleg CDs). It seems to have a release date of 5th March 1989 (although that was a Sunday) ... anyone know if it was ever pencilled in for release? I would be surprised if their first ambient LP was being planned as early as "Tripping On Sunshine", but you never know. Also, apart from the promo photos briefly glimpsed on the "Eternity Project One" sleeve (where they are orbscured by fake moustaches, sunglasses and trapper hats) does anyone know if there are any photos of Jimmy and Alex when they were together in the Orb? Also also ... I can't help wonder if with this tracklisting it might be quite easy to sow tracks together and create a rough approximation of what the original "Space" album would have looked like. What do people think? John

Rare CDs revisited
by John Milne 20 Sep '05

20 Sep '05

Wasn't there a "sequel" to "Eternity Project One" called "Dancebusters Volume 1". I'm sure it had a track from the Orb's "Kiss EP" and maybe a remix of "Let Jimi Take Over" amongst other things? Is that actually rarer than "Eternity Project One"? Also, like "EPO" was it a compilation cherry-picked by Youth? John

One copy came up on ebay about six months ago and went for £30. Surprisingly, as I thought it would go for a lot more. Maybe it doesn't sell because it's (whisper it) not very good. :-) John > Message Received: Sep 19 2005, 10:35 PM > From: "Daniel Loos" <Thous(a)gmx.de> > To: "All bound for Mu-Mu Land." <klf(a)mailman.xmission.com> > Cc: > Subject: Re: [KLF] Rarest CD? > > I had no idea that the Uptight CD is THAT rare.

I have to chime in on this as well. Really beautiful cover design... Too bad the tracks aren't anything out of the ordinary.

Re: 1987 cassette
by Paul 20 Sep '05

20 Sep '05

I sold an original copy of the UK cassette version of 1987,on ebay,earlier this year. I got Â£21 for it,from a very friendly Australian (do you read this list Clarissa?). Was a nice thing to own,but it just sat there on the shelf for nearly 20 years! I listed a CD of the "Dancebusters Vol 1" .. and that didn`t get a single bid,despite being genuine,and mint. BUT.. if it IS in demand,then I may relist it.I also have a 12" of "Let Jimi take over".. any interest? Ebay prices are very erratic..I sold two original K-Cera CDs.. one sold for Â£48.. the other went for just over Â£20..just a week or so apart. I also have a white label containing three (unreleased?) mixes of "huge ever growing..." all without the "Loving you" sample. I bought this direct from Wau,years and years ago,for Â£10...but know nothing about it. Any clues? Just to add to the bizzare a/s/l thing that is going on... 46/m/UK ...and have been collecting since the release of 1987. Erm.. that`s it.

RE: [KLF] How rare is JAMSCLP1?
by John Milne 20 Sep '05

20 Sep '05

Nature of the beast, I'm afraid. Nobody wants cassettes, even if they are of an infamously rare album. The price always seems to be low if you find in an on-line record store (the same can be said for the "Uptight" Indisc CD single, too) ... the trick is to find it in the first place! I notice that a recent ebay boot CD of 1987 included some of the artwork from the cassette version: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4770281732 (the JAMs symbol sideways in the "1987" logo is directly taken from the cassette). I wonder why a cassette was issued? The KLF were never keen on the format - unless it was as a promo ("Who Killed the JAMs" or TWROST), an import ("History of" and "Chill Out") or as a pop single format.
