To answer the original question (grin) I always assumed it was a JAMs track because Bill did a solo, "rapped" vocal on it, just like most of the JAMs tracks, as opposed to most of the KLF tracks which had guest singers and rappers. This obviously only applies to The White Room era KLF, as opposed to the Pure Trance stuff, but since this was the incarnation that had made them world famous, it makes sense. Especially as the track was an attempt to do something radically different. The classic "break from the past." I guess they were just experimenting.

Members Equity Email System Does anyone have any idea why Bill and Jimmy released "It's Grim Up North" as a JAMS track and not a KLF track? Given the sound of the song as trancy techno, and sounding nothing like previous JAMS stuff, I was just curious as to why the name was resurrected--any ideas?
