It has a total playing time printed of 45:05, but in reality it's only 43:54. It lists 9 songs, but only has 8 indexed. It was important for me that The KLF was successful worldwide because I hated bands somehow who thought they were big and, really they were only in big in this fake world of NME and Melody Maker,” Bill Drummond told Richard King for his How Soon Is Now? book. This could be more evidence that Banksy WAS in Liverpool last week​ Another artwork find is adding to the rumours that the world famous street artist was in the city​ Liam Thorp

John Whitworth was one of 400 special guests who were in the city last week for a highly unusual book launch event being held by enigmatic electronic band the Justified Ancients of Mu Mu - also known as the KLF.

They would have a fan following that could put them in the Top 20 but I was thinking, that’s not a real Top 20 record, that’s just your cult following buying it in a week and I’m not interested in that.

Archived (via the Library of Mu) on 16 September 2016. Wikipedia:WikiProject The KLF/LibraryOfMu/226With a music press well used to their headline-grabbing antics and publicity stunts, it was best described by Select magazine. “It’s the last grand gesture, the most heroic act of public self- destruction in the history of pop,” they wrote. “And it’s also Drummond and Cauty’s final howl of disgust, defiance and contempt for a music world gone foul and corrupt.” It was the perfect epitaph.

Archived from the original on 29 February 2020. One of the defining features of the “White Room” album is its seamless blending of different musical elements. The KLF effortlessly combine samples, beats, and live instrumentation to create a rich and layered sonic tapestry. This approach, along with their irreverent attitude and willingness to experiment, helped establish The KLF as innovators in the electronic music scene. Cinquemani, Sal (2 November 2002).

Now a music fan has come forward with what he believes is more evidence that Banksy was in the city at some point last week. As had been the case with What Time Is Love?, 3 A.M. Eternal was originally a Pure Trance 12″ single released in 1989, before being reworked as the second instalment of their Stadium House Trilogy in 1991. It is an edit of this version that was included on The White Room. Cauty, Cressida (August 1989). "KLF Info Sheet 6". KLF Communications. Archived (via the Library of Mu) on 16 September 2016. Wikipedia:WikiProject The KLF/LibraryOfMu/506 He said: “Me and my wife were outside Constellations on Wednesday lunchtime and we were looking for things. There was a load of plywood leant against a wall and my wife pulled one out and we saw it had this artwork on it.

After putting the work safely in their car, the couple then went for tea at Leaf in Bold Street, where coincidentally they were sat next to KLF member Jimmy Cauty. Mixed at Lillie Yard except A1 mixed at The Townhouse, London and A3 mixed at The Manor, Oxfordshire.

Mr Whitworth said he had to mention it, adding: “I just told Jimmy what I had found and that I thought it could be a real Banksy - he just smiled and said ‘that’s very, very interesting’”. The crowd noise (itself a sample taken from U2’s Rattle & Hum to convey the false impression of being a live album) dissipates to welcome a soaring vocal from Maxine Harvey which itself gives way to pounding beats, squelching synths and a saxophone solo from Duy Khiem – all hallmarks of the classic acid house sound. This affirmation in what they were doing continued with the eventual release of The White Room in March 1991. Entering the charts at No.3, it remained in the rundown for almost a year, no doubt bolstered by the further hit singles Last Train To Trancentral (Live at SSL) followed by two songs that were radically remixed for release as singles – Justified & Ancient (Stand By The JAMs), featuring Tammy Wynette and America: What Time Is Love?, both of which were Top 10 hits. Capping their year of extraordinary success at the BRIT Awards, they saw the ceremony as the ideal location to carry out one last act of rebellion and announce their retirement from the music industry. After performing a raucous version of 3 A.M. Eternal with crusty punks Extreme Noise Terror, they began firing blanks from a machine gun at the stunned industry crowd. a b Fox, Marisa (9 August 1991). "The White Room". Entertainment Weekly . Retrieved 23 August 2009.The KLF use an Oberheim OB8 Synthesiser, an Atari Computer, an Akai S900 Sampler, a Gibson 330 Semi-acoustic Guitar. Hochman, Steve (11 August 1991).

It was during one of these hunts that Mr Whitworth, from Wakefield in Yorkshire, and his wife believe they may have grabbed hold of an original Banksy in the Baltic Triangle. It would be just the type of thing for the KLF to do to leave something like that lying around - and I know that Jimmy Cauty has worked with Banksy before” (the two worked together on Banksy’s Dismaland attraction in attraction at Weston-super-Mare.)

Meanwhile, the KLF's single " What Time Is Love?", which had originally been released in 1988 and largely ignored by the public, was generating acclaim within the underground clubs of continental Europe; according to KLF Communications, "The KLF were being feted by all the 'right' DJs". [3] This prompted Drummond and Cauty to pursue the acid house tone of their "Pure Trance" series. A further "Pure Trance" release, " Last Train to Trancentral", followed. The first of their Stadium House Trilogy, it is an edit of this Live At Trancentral mix that appears on the album. The single was their first hit under the KLF moniker and reached No.5 in the UK in July 1990.
