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 ...
