Just watched the new KLF documentary, 'Who Killed the KLF"?

edited April 2022 in Other

It was pretty pretty good. Nowhere near as good as the book by J higgs (who appears in the docco), but pretty pretty good. Was lovely to see the marvelous Alan Moore, and he still seems to know the score. I always gravitated to Chill Out and Space but I always had a respect for them, even when I couldn't stand the music. Truly unique souls, and an attitude towards their art, the likes of which, I don't think we will ever see again.

    Wow - even dumber!

  • The million quid was a critique of modern art; they offered the money to the winner of the Turner prize that year, in the condition they accept the KLF award of ‘Worst artist in the world’. The winner refused, and thus the money was burned, purportedly… for context, the Turner prize was worth about £20k at the time I think…

    Actually the Turner prize stunt was a separate event. They gave £20k to whom they deemed to be the worst artist, Rachel Whiteread, who "coincidentally" had also just won the Turner Prize that year, as a critique of the current state of conceptual art:

    Mad, I goes I conflated the two incidents sometime in the nineties and never looked at it again, that’s the power of a good story 😂

    • I wonder if Whiteread would have bitten if it was the million…
  • wow, I knew the music of Klf in the 90’s. but i never even heard of any of these behind the scenes stories. very excited to see this doc. now i just h e to figure out how to watch it. is it on any of the major

    If the docco whets your appetite, then the book “klf, magic music money” is really worth a read, it goes on all kinds of mental tangents.

    Who Killed the KLF?

    They killed themselves by succumbing to their own self serving mania :) Guess they had cast out their better angels in favor of their fervent daemons of the principia of discordia...whom are never satiated :wink:

    Very entertaining documentary...

  • Thanks to computers, the internet, web 2.0 and "the cloud" I seemed to have tuned out of pop culture from 1985-2015.

    Now I spend my retirement trying to fill in these gaps in my cultural education.

    "Hey, Google... who or what was KLF?"
    "Alexa, play KLF"
    "Siri, how much is the 2TB iPad?" (always back to the new hot computer).

  • That was a great movie, thanks for passing this on. Funny, but being from the US they weren't something you really heard that much about other than the big 3AM tune. I had read the Manual years ago when first getting into music and thought it was just a brilliant joke.

    Really interesting to see more of the back story for these two!

    I've not watched the movie yet (I'll try and make time at the weekend) but Bill Drummond and Jimmy Cauty are exceptionally interesting and eccentric individuals. Bill Drummond was part of the original Liverpool post-punk scene, a member of Big In Japan, and later managed Echo And The Bunnymen and Teardrop Explodes. Jimmy Cauty was in the Orb in parallel to the KLF and together they did some insane stuff. Watching their performances on Top Of The Pops in the early 90s was hilarious, especially the one with Tammy Wynette.

  • They cover all that in the movie, it’s a pretty good look at all their early years not just the last few.

    Awesome, can't wait to watch it.

  • Love the klf
    Kashmir liberation front! Lol
    Read all of drummond’s books...too, bad wisdom had me in stitches. Crazy ‘fear and loathing-esque’ tales and hallucinations!
    Reading my signed copy of the Higgs book currently!
    Must watch this...
    Thanks @sevenape

  • It was pretty amazing to watch them for their next move during their active years, and the best bit was knowing that most people were not going to get it.

    I just caught this on Amazon Prime.

    Loved the bit about the party on the island of Jura. "the music was so loud there were complaints from the other islands and someone was passing round a quality street tin full of ecstasy" :D :D
