Title: THE KLF - Justified Ancients of Mu Mu
Post by: gazwarrington on January 17, 2008, 08:19:32 PM

Does anyone else remember THE KLF ??

Been having some fun at work talking about them, I'm 28 and been educating the 'younger girls and boys' and they all think they were amazing.

amazing how just mentioning the name got people of my age singing various songs.

Anyhow I've set up a 'group' on facebook called "Bring back the KLF" and it can be accessed here...
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=8415472118 .. SPEAD THE WORD !!!!

I know they said they would never reform but I think its good to appreciate them for what they did..

Did anyone here ever see them live ?

Gary,

You need to unearth a copy of this book by Bill Drummond of the KLF:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Manual-How-Have-Number-Easy/dp/1872013007/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1200604350&sr=1-1 (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Manual-How-Have-Number-Easy/dp/1872013007/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1200604350&sr=1-1)

I seem to remember that some of their stunts included delivering a dead sheep to the BRITS Awards (?) and allegedly burning a million pounds as an 'artistic statement'.

Did KLF stand for Klandestine Liberation Front.....or am I totally wrong there?

Regards.

Tammy Wynette.
