It isn't. It's Michael Herr, who did the narration for Apocalypse Now. M -----Original Message-----

There are infact two different versions. The MTV version is done by Scott Piering (who isn't that good at rising the tense at all), while the long version is done by Whats-His-Name who has been mentioned in an earlier post. The footage is the same, but the MTV version's mp3 features a hillarious introduction by Ray Cokes. That guy ruled! :) ..::// Thomas Touzimsky "The four building blocks of the universe are fire, water, gravel and vinyl." (Dave Barry)
Dont know about the suing part, Jimmy Cauty did a remix of Marta and the Muffins for the same label some years later as Scrouge of the earth but he is thanked and credited as Ex-KLF man Jimmy. Also the Vinyl version of this release (tribute to Marta and the Muffins) has a T speaker on the sleeve, looking alot like the speaker on The white room. So I think the Waiting for the rights of Mu was a legit release if you can call it that :-) -K.
