Superb music and stunts.

Was the dead sheep directed at anyone like Morrissey or was it purely for the shock factor ?

Justified and Ancient was a massive song in the clubs and even the honky tonk bars for obvious reasons.

Loved KLF - great music. Loved Bill Drummond who asked me to manage KLF after the Brits incident. I appealed to Bill NOT to spray the front row with blood (though I'd personally have enjoyed seeing all the industry conservatives get drenched; they were giving me grief about the way I ran the show; not obeying instructions). Because it would have damaged other artistes' exposure. He agreed and pulled back. Lovely guy; ditto Jimmy.

It's a pity that they deleted their back catalogue. ( I have seen their CDs go for hundreds of dollars and pounds)

Even though I'm a capitalist; them burning the money was great - it was their money and they earned it. No one is tell people what to do with other peoples' money.

Hard to believe that they are in their late 60s.

When the A303 gets a new underground road no doubt their Brits award will be unearthed.

I know farmers and hunters who would be mortified if they saw KLF sheep was not being eaten after being dumped. (Celebs don't know class if they saw it )

After they had the hits they got the writs..
They got so much grief from the guest singers demanding money, royalties and co-writing credits that I think the simplest thing to do was to delete the back catalogue.

Interestingly, their works are still available in other parts of the world.. probably from old licensing of masters deals..

They’re still creative but in other ways now...

“3 AM Eternal” “ Doctorin' the Tardis” (The Timelords),
“Last Train to Traincentral”, “Justified and Ancient”.

Very bizarre pop / house music.

I bought the album and didn’t like it.. but I bought & loved the singles..

Wasn't all house/acid music bizarre in way or another ?

I'm not an expert on licensing and publishing in the music world.

I used to find Yugoslavian and Soviet Union bootlegs of classic rock and soul music in Philly in the late 1990s.
