Tammy Wynette joins the Justified Ancients of the Mu-Mu

submitted by oxdottir

1 decade 6 years 11 months ago

From Wikipedia:

The KLF (also known as The Justified Ancients of Mu Mu (The JAMs), The Timelords and other names) were one of the seminal bands of the British acid house movement during the late 1980s and early 1990s.

From the outset, they adopted the philosophy espoused by esoteric novels The Illuminatus! Trilogy, gaining notoriety for various anarchic situationist manifestations, including the defacement of billboard adverts, the posting of prominent cryptic advertisements in NME magazine and the mainstream press, and highly distinctive and unusual performances on Top of the Pops. Their most notorious performance was at the February 1992 BRIT Awards, where they fired machine gun blanks into the audience and dumped a dead sheep at the aftershow party. This performance announced The KLF's departure from the music business, and in May 1992 the duo deleted their entire back catalogue.

You forgot to mention that KLF stood for "Kopyright Liberation Front" and that the band was on the forefront of sampling other peoples' works and appropriating them for other purposes. They coined the term "creative plagiarism".
