the poleheads were a creative manifestation of dave green who was on the 1997 & 1998 spins... i remember going to see them at heebeegeebees in liverpool on a long good friday in 1998... the house system had a low frequency bass that was so thunderous that it literally made the building vibrate if memory serves me right i think bill and dave had talked about the poleheads being the next klf and dave had made great play of this during the 98 spin... in turn this was also claimed by members of x$x who were also on that years spin... couple that with all the deliberate disinformation being peddled - rather naturally lines became blurred the track on bber was a lot more polished than the live gig and i reckon thats how mr green got signed later that year interestingly i never experienced anything quite as awe inspiring as the low frequency boom that night until that is we let off military thunder flashes in the basement vault of the foundry which quite frankly i'd imagine pisses on everything short of an actual bomb! tim ----- Original Message ----- From: TheMgnt@aol.com To: klf@mailman.xmission.com Sent: Wednesday, May 10, 2006 7:13 PM Subject: [KLF] One for the oldies - circa 1998 The Poleheads Back in 98 when Gimpo was running his Millennium Crisis Site there was talk of a group called the Poleheads having a track called Kiss on the Big Beat Elite Repeat album. Rumor at the time was that it might-be-THEM. I ordered said album but what I got was the 1st volume (big beat elite). Deeming it too costly to send it back to the UK I just kept it and never got the Repeat disc. Never really gave BBE a chance at the time but it stood out when looking at the CD wall so I took it to the car with me. Quite enjoyed it, actually! Now I'm thinking of finding the Repeat disc and started thinking about this track. Obviously it turned out to not be B/J. But does anyone recall why we thought it might be them in the first place? Why Gimpo made mention announcing the release of the track? Was the track any good? http://www.xmission.com/pub/lists/klf/archive/v02.n053 to refresh your mind but I can't be bothered to go paging thru the archives to find my answers. -paul ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ KLF mailing list KLF@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/klf Report list abuse to list-abuse at studio-nibble.com
