There is one other option - we make up and put out a "greatest hits" ourselves. We all agree on a title, artwork (which can uploaded somewhere, and then printed off), tracklisting (lots of rarities on there), maybe even type up a small informative booklet - and burn off a selected number of CDRs (say 10 copies each). People could upload WAVs to somewhere, and they could be access for burning purposes. Then, we all go to local record shops, and drop the CDs into the racks (KLF ones, if they have then; related artists or ones who have fans that might be KLF-interested if they don't). People will find them, and either take them home or give them to the cashier (who will be confused, or delighted, or ... oh, there's 100s of possibilities). We could still make them look slightly cheap (by necessity, I suppose) and then remove everything on-line so people can't just print up new copies. It could be this year's Bansky/Paris Hilton sensation! This could all be done on the 20th anniversary of the release of 1987, in May.

Does anyone have a good track listing of this with times? Thankx, RMStringer ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Let teachers and priests and philosophers brood over questions of reality and illusion. I know this: if life is an illusion, then I am no less an illusion, and being thus, the illusion is real to me. I live, I burn with life, I love, I slay, and I am content.

3AM on The White Room OST?
by Simon Glass 15 Jan '07

15 Jan '07

i recently unearthed one of my old TWROST cassettes, i think it might be a Dutton creation as it has the cartoonised 'why sheep?' pic and some extra tracks, and i had forgotten that it also includes an edit of one of the Pure Trance mixes of 3AM, which seems a little out of place...i think it might be the edit that features on one of the old rave compilations John mentioned recently more recent tidied-up 'versions' of the album didn't include this so what's the deal? was it intended to be included? i want to make an extended CD of TWROST and it would be nice to include 3AM but i am tempted to go for Thomas' cleaned up/remixed 1990 demo, which kinda bridges the gap nicely between TWROST and the 1991 release of The White Room tbc. --------------------------------- The fish are biting.

KLF Greatest Hits
by John Milne 14 Jan '07

14 Jan '07

The idea of Malicious Damage is a great idea too, but would Bill & Jimmy agree? No, is probably the answer. Remixing the White Room track for track, or even the singles collection, is also a good idea - but way beyond my technical or musical expertise. However, if we're wanting to do a singles and rarities set, here's my proposed tracklisting (with original sources, if applicable). Apologies if this seems a little dull. Both CDs are between 79 and 80 minutes long: CD1 (1) All You Need is Love (taken from the Australian Possum CD) (2) Whitney Joins the JAMs (the 4 minute edit suggested on this list a wee while ago) (3) Downtown (from JAMSCD3) (4) Burn the Beat (Possum Edit from Oz History Joins the JAMs) (5) Doctorin' the Tardis (the 2' 23 video edit from KLF3CD) (6) Kylie Said to Jason (KLF010CD) (7) What Time is Love (Radio Edit) (KLF004CD) (8) 3 AM Eternal at the SSL (Edit) (KLF005CD) (8) Last Train to Trancentral Live from the Lost Continent (Edit) (KLF008CD) (9) It's Grim Up North (Edit) (JAMS28CD) (10) America: What Time is Love (Edit) (KLFUSA4CD) (11) Justified and Ancient (Stand By the JAMs Edit) (KLF99CD) (12) KLF Vs. ENT 3 AM Eternal (KLF5TOTP) (13) K Sera Sera (14) Fuck the Millennium (Uncensored Radio Edit) (15) What Time is Love (KLF4T a-side from JAMSCD4) (16) 3 AM Eternal (KLF5T a-side from "Warehouse Raves 4" CD) (17) Last Train to Trancentral (Remix 2) (KLF8T b-side from KLF8CD) (18) What Time Was Love? ("Give Peace a Dance" CD) CD2 (the tracklisting for this is a bit more tricky - should we, for example, include Love Trance, or have anything to do with Gary Glitter in this day and age?): (1) Deep Shit (Part III) (includes the whole the Queen and I, of course) (2) Gary in the Tardis (Minimal) (KLF3R) (3) Go To Sleep (from the White Room demos/soundtrack) (4) Lover's Side (Extended Mix) (5) 3 AM Eternal (Orbital Blue Danube Mix) (KLF5R) (6) What Time is Love (Monster Attack Mix) (KLF6T or KLF4M or whatever) (7) Love Trance (KLF6T) (8) Build a Fire (Lenny Dee Remix) (from "Energy DJs in the House" CD) (9) No More Tears (Radio Edit) (from French promo CD) )10) Madrugada Eterna (Club Mix Edit) (ETERNA1) (11) Justified and Ancient (Anti-Acapella Mix) (CHOC ICE 3) (12) January: What Time is Love? (KLF 92 PROMO 2) (13) What Time is Love? (Acid Mix) (KLF 92 PROMO 3) (14) The Magnificent (from the "Help" CD) (15) What Time is Love (Acid Brass Live Version) (Japanese "Acid Brass" 6-track CD) I've even thought of a title (although it's not very good): "Drummond and Cauty: the Severe Alliance" (a play on "Morrissey and Marr: the Severed Alliance"). Anyway, what do people think? Would people on the klf.de discussion boards be interested?

Or maybe Free, rather than Freed - since it WILL be at point of distribution. Anyway, I love your title - you get MY vote! But I really do think this CD should be free - for those that can find them. No selling them for profit. We all keep one, and give the rest of the copies we press up away. Doesn't have to be record shops, of course, you could leave them lying around in cafes, give them to strangers, work colleagues, anyone - just get the music out there and, er, Kelebrate? "Release date" could be March 10th 2007 (the Saturday closest to the 20th anniversary of JAMS23 first appearing: I'm sure a Saturday would be better for people secreting copies in record shops) or alternatively June 16th 2007 (again, the Saturday closest to the 20th anniversary of 1987). That month also sees the 40th anniversary of Sgt Pepper, so it would quite nice to have our own little celebration when everyone else is going Beatles-reissue crazy again (I'm presuming). It all should happen in one day, too. Oh, and if people think this is just a Banksy rip-off: you're right! What could be more Cauty-esque than that?

Some old KLF things from me now up on Ebay.

Hi, I also am sad to hear about RAW but he's had such a long full life, I'm sure he was more than happy with his lot. His influence will live on in so many ways. I took Johns advice and put up a bunch of things at once. I don't want to spam the list but lets be honest it'd be foolish to not mention them to a group of people most likely to be interested in them. They all end next Sunday (21st) History Of The Jams: Australian Possum CD - Opening bid: £49.99 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=220070746755 Ultra Rare Trax CD - Opening bid: £19.99 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=220070723695 3am Eternal double A side 12" promo (KLF 005) - Opening bid: £19.99 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=220070708715 Burn The Bastards 12" (KLF 002T) - Opening bid: £19.99 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=220070708786 Downtown 12" (JAMS 27T) - Opening bid: £19.99 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=220070708830 Who Killed The Jams?

It has the full contents as listed in the discog - http://www.klf.de/discography/index.php3?search=what+the+klf+are+about - but was updated at the time (1997) by Mike with the complete White Room film, and then is filled up to the end of the tape with footage (official & fan cam) of the 2K event at the Barbican. I'd be after about £35 inc postage for it. Over & out. Fnord.

KLF re-recordings by Jimmy
by John Milne 13 Jan '07

13 Jan '07

http://www.popjustice.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=660&Ite… Probably everyone has seen this by now, but I though the bit about Jimmy re-recording old KLF tracks (and new stuff) was interesting, even if it WAS a few years ago. Maybe a greatest hits, reworked for 2006, or a mix CD, or ... something ... will be released this year. Personally, I'd like to see a "best of", cheapily made, with a booklet full of spelling mistakes and factual erros, put out by a label like Castle Communications. Then, this greatest hits (which would include EVERY single, possibly as a two-disc set) would be sold for around £4, and be mostly found alongside the Patsy Cline and ropey Willie Nelson live CDs at service stations and mini-markets. You can still pick up "Energy DJ's In the House" at such places. And since Castle were planning the BD "The Man" reissue in 2005 (whatever happened to that, btw?) it's not entirely beyond possibility. I'm sure B&J would love the sheer disposability of a greatest hits from a band that hit their commercial peak 15 years ago suddenly just appearing as a cheapo CD that Virgin and HMV wouldn't touch (oh, and it would never be on Itunes).
