    ██▓▓        More than any pop band in history, the KLF          ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        ripped off the music industry for a                 ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        bucketful of loot and got away with it -- as        ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        illustrated in their own guidebook to               ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        creating number one singles, -The Manual.           ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Bill Drummond and Jimi Cauty applied the            ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        tactics of punk shock-terrorism to late-'80s        ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        acid house and became one of Britain's              ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        best-selling artists (recording also as the         ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        JAMS and the Timelords) just before their           ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        retirement in 1992. The duo then deleted            ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        their entire back catalog -- a potential            ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        loss in the millions of pounds -- and               ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        declared they wouldn't release another              ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        record until peace was declared throughout          ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        the world. The son of a Scottish preacher,          ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Bill Drummond (b. April 29, 1953; South             ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Africa) ran away from home to become a              ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        fisherman before enrolling in a Liverpool           ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        art school in the late '70s. He became              ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        involved in Liverpool's punk scene, and in          ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        1977 formed the short-lived punk band Big in        ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Japan with Holly Johnson (later of Frankie          ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Goes to Hollywood) and Ian Broudie (the             ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Lightning Seeds). A year later, Drummond            ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        co-founded the Zoo label (with Dave Balfe),         ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        serving as manager and producer for the             ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Teardrop Explodes and Echo & the Bunnymen           ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        through the early '80s. After both bands            ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        left Zoo for the majors, Drummond followed          ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        by joining WEA as an A&R man; there, he             ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        signed Strawberry Switchblade, Zodiac               ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Mindwarp, the Proclaimers, and Brilliant. He        ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        quit the business in 1986, though, and              ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        released the solo album The Man one year            ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        later for Creation Records. The album was a         ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        satiric goodbye to music, voicing Drummond's        ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        hope that he would never be involved in the         ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        industry again. With his retirement only six        ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        months old, Drummond decided to make a              ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        hip-hop record. He called an old friend,            ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Brilliant's Jimi Cauty (b. 1954), to help           ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        with production and technology. A week              ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        later, the duo -- christened the Justified          ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Ancients of Mu Mu, or the JAMS for short --         ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        recorded the sample-heavy pastiche "All You         ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Need Is Love." The single, released that            ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        May, was followed a month later by the JAMS'        ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        debut album 1987 (What the Fuck Is Going            ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        On?), which continued the sonic piracy with         ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        long passages lifted from the Beatles, Led          ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Zeppelin, and ABBA. As a matter of course,          ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        ABBA objected to the sampling, and in               ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        September the Copyright Protection Society          ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        demanded that all copies be recalled and            ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        destroyed. Instead, Drummond and Cauty              ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        traveled to Sweden, hoping that a personal          ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        meeting with ABBA would resolve the                 ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        situation. Locked out of the group's                ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Stockholm studio, the pair decided to return        ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        to England, stopping only to burn 500 copies        ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        of 1987 in a Swedish field. (The incident           ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        was photographed and serves as the cover for        ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        the best-of album History of the JAMS.)             ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Cauty and Drummond kept the album in the            ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        spotlight though, by advertising in The Face        ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        magazine five remaining copies for sale at          ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        the price of ú1000 each. They eventually            ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        sold three, gave one away, and kept the             ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        last. In October 1987, the JAMS released an         ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        edited version of the album called 1987 (The        ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        JAMS 45 Edits), with specific instructions          ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        on how to recreate the original 1987 at             ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        home. A second album, Who Killed the JAMS?,         ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        appeared early in 1988, but it was                  ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        superseded by the May release of "Doctorin'         ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        the Tardis" (recorded as the Timelords).            ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Incorporating samples from Gary Glitter,            ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Sweet, and the theme to Dr. Who, the single         ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        hit number one in the British charts and            ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        eventually became one of the most popular           ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        sports anthems of all time. Within six              ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        months, "Doctorin' the Tardis" was collected        ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        on two JAMS compilations, the American              ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        History of the JAMS a.k.a. The Timelords,           ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        and the British double-LP Circa 1987: Shag          ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Times. Six months later, Cauty and Drummond         ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        compiled their knowledge of popular success         ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        and the music industry, publishing -The             ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Manual with a statement of purpose included         ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        in the subtitle: "How to have a number one          ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        the easy way -- The Justified Ancients of Mu        ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Mu reveal their zenarchistic method used in         ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        making the unthinkable happen." Cauty and           ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Drummond's second novelty single, "Kylie            ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Said to Jason" (credited to the KLF, or             ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Kopyright Liberation Front), proved a flop          ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        in July 1989, so the pair changed directions        ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        later that year. Jettisoning the beats of           ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        their previous work but retaining the               ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        samples and effects, the duo played a major         ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        part in the development of the '90s boom in         ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        ambient music. Cauty and Drummond recorded          ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        the classic Chill Out album in late 1989,           ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        mixing source material from two DAT machines        ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        onto a cassette recorder during a live              ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        session. Concurrent to the Chill Out                ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        project, Cauty had actually formed another          ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        ambient house forerunner, the Orb, with Dr.         ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Alex Paterson. The duo recorded "A Huge Ever        ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Growing Pulsating Brain That Rules From the         ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Centre of the Ultraworld" in addition to            ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        material for an album, but split early in           ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        1990 -- with Paterson taking the name for           ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        his future recordings. Cauty then deleted           ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        Paterson's contributions, re-recorded large         ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        portions, and released the results credited         ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        only as Space. Obviously, the KLF's ambient         ██▓▓
    ██▓▓        recordings weren't going to top the charts,         ██▓▓
