      I'm from Manchester as well, I was born in 1970 but left in 1982 to live in Brisbane where I'm still based today. It was never a grim place or time for me - I had a very happy childhood there for the most part. But I am now very worried for what's happening in England now with so many terrorist attacks, especially the shootings at Ariana Grande's concert a few years ago and more recently the stabbings out in Southport. The North will stand, regardless! :-)

Whether this is the eternal echo of a Victorian steam driven revolution or the turbo kick of a distant Northern rave is irrelevant. Thus inspired, The JAMS climb into the back of their truck and work."

    It's about variety. When you look at music styles some are combinations of different styles/directions eg the sudden restart up at the end which launches into a new song/direction. Compare that to punk, rap, grime, disco, etc...... Often just follow one line of direction. From start to finish. Classic example of this is club tunes and especially when they can mix several tunes on one drum pattern. Fine if your idea of music is duh duh duh....... But it doesn't go anywhere in most cases.

    Heard this at a rave in cambridge one damp december evening, already knew the track being a huge klf fan at the time, but never heard it in a rave before, not while i was off me nut, and omg, the extended version is beyond awesome, what with all the smoke and lasers flying through the air, hands up, it was a memorable moment to say the least!
    At one point the klf were probably one of the most sampled groups during their time, ironic considering their origins, but you would hear the original version of What Time Is Love on various acid rave tracks with just some vocals thrown over the top, you would think the klf are being played and it would be some other track that just sampled huge chunks of the klf and called it their own, again, the irony is not lost on me and it should not be with you =)
    I still have all my KLF vinyl after all these years, got this on white label, as well as all the pure trance releases, and the majestic Space, the only thing missing is Chill Out, but i still have that on CD and a ripped mp3 which still gets played to this day!

    Welcome back the KLF- I like many I am sure, have looked for your back catologue for a long time- Having lost my copy of the White room- I was not aware you had made such a statement and cant say I blame you- I have not stopped listening to your few tracks since re-discovering them on Spotify yesterday!
