Dreaming of dad jazz.

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.

Yle ArenanWho 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 #review today: "There is a new band on #FruitsDeMerRecords, #FifthDaughter, the duo of #NicholasWhittaker (Diagonal) and #JamesHowarth (#RunningDogs, The #KLF, and Martin “Youth” Glover). Whittaker and Howarth conceived their debut album, Stellar Season, as a loose concept album about a rural society far from Earth, obsessed with summer that leads to an endless day that they eventually regret." #ExposeOnline #PsychedelicRock expose.org/index.php/articles/

Yle AreenaK2, J3: Miljoonan punnan tuhkat - mielipuolisesta tempauksesta syntyi kappale | Keskusteluja Jarkko Martikaisen kanssa“Säikähdin kun maksoin vahingossa 7 euroa luotolla!” Jarkko Martikaisen ja Olli Laineen keskustelussa Martikainen paljastaa olevansa äärimmäisen tarkka rahankäyttäjä joka vihaa velkaa. Hän pohtii rahan suhdetta taiteeseen ja muistelee 1990-luvulla kansaa kohahduttanutta rahanpolttamistempausta! Performanssi inspiroi Martikaista tekemään YUP:lle kappaleen josta kuulemme näytteen. Keskustelu sivuaa myös kulutuskulttuuria ja tuhlaamista. Martikainen korostaa että hänelle riittää nykyinen elämäntapa ilman suuria hankintoja: “matkustaisin enemmän ellei se olisi niin kallista. Mun elämäni luksusta on Moleskinen muistikirja ja laadukkaat kartanpiirtokynät, niihin menee maksimissaan 200 e vuodessa.” Keskustelun lomassa Jarkko laulaa ja soittaa kitaraa ja kuulemme otteet ja taustatarinat Jarkon teiniajan bändin Euthanasian kappaleesta “Materialisti” (1987) sekä YUP-yhtyeen biisistä “Joutilas“ (2003).

Trees & Flowers was re-recorded for a BBC John Peel session in October 1982 & it was that track which led Bill Drummond & David Balfe to become Strawberry Switchblade's managers & producers, releasing a further new version as the debut single in July 1983.

#TuneTuesday is all about #KickBackTunes - songs that you play when you want/need to kick back and relax.

This song both soothes and terrifies me and hence is a perfect choice for today, as this is basically my current mood:

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.
