They gave Tammy the final Swansong and exposure she truly deserved. Freddies death shocked me at the time and I was shattered then, I slowly came to terms in a while.

I worked for KLF Communications around this time. From what I heard the negotiations with Wynette's management were ... intense. The office was in Brixton and in the basement was a huge storeroom with various props including that foam rubber ice cream cone.

I first came across the Klf courtesy of a small record shop in Brighton (UK), I think the record I got was 1987 what the f** is going on. Never looked back, been collecting all their stuff ever since, one of the most exciting and innovative bands of all time, mixing and matching art concepts and different musical styles. Took me years to track down a copy of their first album that got deleted. Brilliant they won the Brit Awards, we need more people like them now, most mainstream music nowadays is so formulaic, no innovation any more. Only exception I can think of now for originality in a completely different genre is the German band Rammstein, who also just do what they want and don't care what the media thinks, look out for them

When they released Justified, I admit I'd never heard of Wynette at that time, but would've recognised Dolly Parton. It's interesting to now learn that it was actually intended to be Dolly, but I seriously doubt she'd have ever agreed to do it or her minders would've stopped her.

I wasn't into their music but am aware of it, it is pretty catchy I must admit. I went to the Isle of Jura a few years ago ( Ardfin Estate ) to install a load of coffee machines for the estate's new mega rich Australian owner. There's the main house, beach house, boathouse and a full PGA golf course....during my visit just about every one of the Irish building team that took me to the boathouse, where a coffee machine was to be installed, said, see that fireplace, the band the KLF burn't a million quid in it !!! Apparently, it's true. If it is true, I wonder if they regret doing it.

@@thewhiteroom23 The Queen single was an AA side with "These are the Days" which the producers of this BBC programme neglected to mention (probably wasn't even born then) and I remember that "These are the Days" received heavy airplay going into '92 which secured it 5 weeks at number one. Bohemian Rhapsody had been featured as the lead A side initially but it quickly became apparent that the other A was what people wanted to hear.
