There's a reference to "not messing with the real JAMMs" in one of the reviews printed in the "Shag Times" booklet, too. Don Lucknow ... hmmm ... sounds like a Groucho pun. In that it's not funny. ;-) John > Message Received: Jan 08 2006, 02:19 PM > From: "Simon Glass" > To: "All bound for Mu-Mu Land." > Cc: > Subject: Re: [KLF] Long Time Lurker > > If memory serves, the KLF wrote back to the address at the top of the threatening letter, the Yossarian News Service or something, and the guy who replied suspected one of his colleagues had written to them and was kidding around, and the 'Don't Look Now' thing was lifted from a Marx Brothers movie tbc. > > KLF- gyerek wrote: Don Lucknow wrote a letter to the JAMs, warning them on the effects of > playing with the dark side.

I never thought of that! I wonder if Jimmy was well-known amongst Tolkein obsessives way back in the late 70s? Didn't he once say his poster was mostly bought by "nursing students" ... ? :-) John > Message Received: Dec 18 2005, 12:33 PM > From: "X Kyle M Thompson" > To: "All bound for Mu-Mu Land." > Cc: > Subject: Re: [KLF] stamp for xmas > > On 12/13/05, John Milne wrote: > > I wonder if there's any "stamp collectors" who weren't KLF fans back in the > > day? > > Or people who bought a LOTR poster? > > kt. > > _______________________________________________ > KLF mailing list > KLF(a)mailman.xmission.com > http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/klf > Report list abuse to list-abuse at studio-nibble.com > >

Catch Up Hunting

The only reference to Don Lucknow I can find in the mailing list archive is: On Thu, May 15, 2003 at 07:50:16PM +0100, Mark Reed (signed as Jon) wrote: B&J blatantly aren't the *real* Justified Ancients of Mummu (note spelling) but only Don Lucknow felt it necessary to point that out. Ive also been doing some catch up hunting on the web and come across the 'different project royal mix' of FTM. It appears to be recent but it's not listed in the discog (yet..? not sure how often it gets updated) and the only mention I've found so far is on klf-communications.net http://search.klf-communications.net/different%20project ------------------ file 211 / 23.08.2005 16:34:30 / 726 bytes ------------------KLF - Odd Sounds of Mu 1 Bootleg 13 Track 5"CD Album (79:24) 01. 06:00 - 3 a.m. Eternal (original) 02. 07:11 - Justified & Ancient (anti a cappella mix) 03. 05:49 - What Time Is Love ?

Long Time Lurker
by Kjartan Behm 05 Jan '06

05 Jan '06

Hello all, firstly, a (re)introduction: I've been a member of this list, off-and-on, for many, many years now - under various guises due to not having a home computer of my own. Having finally got round to setting up a home email account I can now look forward to receiving and participating in the comings and goings herein, rather than digging through the arkives! I'm 25, male, and I live in Edinburgh, Scotland. I have collected Cauty/Drummond et al since I was first bought the White Room album at the tender and impressionable age of 11 - they struck a chord that has resonated since. Through numerous visits to collectors' fairs etc. I've amassed what I thought was a rather good collection until I had a look at the updated discography (on the impressive klf.de site)... Therefore, I would be particularly interested in any discussion on recent projects the pair (and other collaborators e.g. Gimpo etc) are up to (having gathered the basics online) and explanations of the Kalavela releases etc. But, I ought to start with a specific question to get the ball rolling, so here goes, reading through my copy of the manual again, it occurred to me that I haven't a clue who Don Lucknow was but expect him to be a key figure in the Cauty/Drummond history since the book was dedicated to him, any info? Thanks in advance, Kjartan Behm

Brilliant query (no, really, it is ... )
by John Milne 04 Jan '06

04 Jan '06

At a record fair in 1993/4 I purchase the two early Brilliant 12"s ("Colours", their Rough Trade debut and "Wait For It", their third single, and their second on Food). A long time later, I read that Jimmy Cauty had NOTHING to do with these early sessions, and only came on board with the tracks for "Kiss the Lips of Life" (and possibly "Soul Murder", although I'm not sure). Soon after, I sold these two Brilliant singles (because, let's be honest, they very definitely were NOT brilliant) and have stuck to the "KSTLOL" singles (which I'm selling on ebay soon) ever since ... Can anyone confirm for sure when Jimmy came on board the Brilliant project? I just have this feeling that originally it was a big, Killing Jokey band, and then was stripped down to a synth-pop trio. Also, their label - Food. Is this the same label, owned by Dave Balfe, that signed Blur in 1989? If so, were they a subsiduary of Warners in the eighties and not in the nineties? And FINALLY ... I wonder if there's anywhere we could lobby or write to get "KTLOL" (and remixes!) reissued on CD. I find it a little strange that this wasn't tried at the KLF's height (after all, Creation did it with "The Man"). I'm sure most people here would go out and buy it, for loyalty if nothing else. And put a "JIMMY KLF CAUTY" sticker on it, and it would sell even more ... Any ideas where we could write to? John
