I've seen two blokes of a certain age in KLF T-shirts in the last week. Is there some sort of a revival in the offing? #klfisgonnarockya #stadiumhouse #billdrummond #jimmycauty

this one is quite obscure. At about 50 seconds into the final track ("Pluto, then re-entry to earth") from the #KLF 1990 ambient LP "Space", the strings from #EnnioMorricone's soundtrack to the movie #TheMission swell up from deep in space as our virtual space ship whizzes past. And my heart fills with wonder.

I don't know who the credit goes to - #JimmyCauty for making "Space" or Morricone for his soundtrack. But then that is post-modernism for you, isn't it?

TIL Jimmy Cauty of the KLF made a series of well received posters of Lord of the Rings and other fantasy / folklore subjects in the 70s and 80s.

> A guy from Athena actually flew in a helicopter to my house to get the poster and gave me £500 and 12 per cent royalties, which I thought was an absolute fortune ‘cos I was on the dole. Apparently it was mostly student nurses who bought it.

Who Killed the KLF?

Technobandet KLF (1987 - 1992) är ett av de mest egendomliga och spännande fallen i hitmusikens historia. Det gjorde jättehittarna What time is love och Justified & ancient. Dokumentärfilmen är en upptäcktsresa till bandets kraftduos, Jimmy Cauty och Bill Drummond, anarkistiska upptåg och till tänkande som kombinerar konspirationsteorier, hyss, esoterisk Mu Mumytologi och kapitalismkritik. Chris Atkins regiverk utgör en helt inofficiell tolkning av konstprojektet KLF, som slutade i kaos. (Storbritannien, 2021)

New on the fansite: interview with John Cook, bassist with Strawberry Switchblade 1983-4.

He talks not only about his time on the road and in the studio with the band, but also about his earlier career with Jimmy Cauty who went on to be half of the KLF, and his subsequent academic work including a new paper on his final gig with Strawberry Switchblade.

I'm finishing off my day of listening to KLF stuff with something... half-KLF? Space is another great ambient album though this one's only by one half of The KLF, Jimmy Cauty. It did, however, originally have material by Alex Paterson and was meant to be the first Orb album, but due to a disagreement Paterson's work was removed and it was released as a solo album. That's the story, anyway.
