The White Room lead the way for every trance/chill/ambient artist that followed in my opinion. Drummond and Cauty are the dance music equivalent of Banksy in art.

The White Room a great album. Was a big fan back in the day along with The Shamen and Jesus Jones. A cracking era.
This is Radio Freedom.... |

Drummond was great fun as long as you weren't professionally involved with him. As Julian Cope, with whom Drummond had been involved when he was guru/mentor/producer in the Liverpool scene at the end of the seventies, commented: he might have had the decency to pay a fraction of the million quid to the people to whom he still owed money before he burnt the rest of it.
There's plenty of testimony that Drummond himself might not have been so sanguine about burning the cash after he'd actually done it. He was reportedly something of a haunted man for some time afterwards. For me his glory days were long before the KLF, when he was creating the Bunnymen's image as the band he always dreamt of: when the smoke cleared and revealed the band on stage in their camo gear and woodland setting to the sound of Going Up in 1979 ... I know I was still a teenager then, but that was magical. |

This is an obscure favourite of mine from that period: The Lonely Spy by Lori and the Chameleons, the Chameleons being Drummond and Dave Balfe, ex-Teardrop Explodes, and yet another face from that scene against whom Julian Cope launched a vendetta.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5spqUhn6Z3k Lori herself was a student who happened to be the spitting image of a young Gail Tilsley/Platt/etc. out of Coronation St. The fact that the bass player in the Bunnymen was a dead ringer for Brian Tilsley was a source of mild amusement at the time. |
