It would be just the type of thing for the KLF to do to leave something like that lying around - and I know that Jimmy Cauty has worked with Banksy before” (the two worked together on Banksy’s Dismaland attraction in attraction at Weston-super-Mare.) Capping their year of extraordinary success at the BRIT Awards, they saw the ceremony as the ideal location to carry out one last act of rebellion and announce their retirement from the music industry. After performing a raucous version of 3 A.M. Eternal with crusty punks Extreme Noise Terror, they began firing blanks from a machine gun at the stunned industry crowd. Mr Whitworth said he had to mention it, adding: “I just told Jimmy what I had found and that I thought it could be a real Banksy - he just smiled and said ‘that’s very, very interesting’”. The crowd noise (itself a sample taken from U2’s Rattle & Hum to convey the false impression of being a live album) dissipates to welcome a soaring vocal from Maxine Harvey which itself gives way to pounding beats, squelching synths and a saxophone solo from Duy Khiem – all hallmarks of the classic acid house sound. It has a total playing time printed of 45:05, but in reality it's only 43:54. It lists 9 songs, but only has 8 indexed.This could be more evidence that Banksy WAS in Liverpool last week​ Another artwork find is adding to the rumours that the world famous street artist was in the city​ Liam Thorp a b Fox, Marisa (9 August 1991).

It also has the single mix of 'Last Train To Trancentral' instead of the mellower UK album version, edits 'No More Tears' down from 9:24 to 6:42, and adds a little more wind noise at the end of the closing 'Justified And Ancient'. This is what The KLF is about. Also known as The Justified Ancients of Mu Mu, furthermore known as The Jams...'

With a music press well used to their headline-grabbing antics and publicity stunts, it was best described by Select magazine. “It’s the last grand gesture, the most heroic act of public self- destruction in the history of pop,” they wrote. “And it’s also Drummond and Cauty’s final howl of disgust, defiance and contempt for a music world gone foul and corrupt.” It was the perfect epitaph.

The White Room is the fourth and final studio album by British electronic music group The KLF, released on 3 March 1991. The album features versions of the band's hit singles, including " What Time Is Love?", " 3 a.m. Eternal", and " Last Train to Trancentral". Hochman, Steve (11 August 1991).

They would have a fan following that could put them in the Top 20 but I was thinking, that’s not a real Top 20 record, that’s just your cult following buying it in a week and I’m not interested in that. I wanted to know that the records we’re making were touching vast amounts of people. That was incredibly important.” Recorded with the proceeds from their Doctorin’ The TARDIS single, the original 1988 version of What Time Is Love? marked a shift for Bill and Jimmy away from hip-hop towards dance music. The first of their Pure Trance 12″ singles, the song’s title is a reference to clubbers asking what time their Ecstasy will take effect.

It was during one of these hunts that Mr Whitworth, from Wakefield in Yorkshire, and his wife believe they may have grabbed hold of an original Banksy in the Baltic Triangle. Mixed at Lillie Yard except A1 mixed at The Townhouse, London and A3 mixed at The Manor, Oxfordshire. Last Train To Trancentral starts right after the string section and features a completely new additional verse from Ricardo Lyte after the breakdown. Subsidised with the proceeds of an 80s novelty hit, the eccentricities, the vision and ambition of KLF, combined with their taste for acid house and anarchy, resulted in The White Room, one of the finest dance-pop albums of the 90s… The KLF The White Room cover

Reviews

This affirmation in what they were doing continued with the eventual release of The White Room in March 1991. Entering the charts at No.3, it remained in the rundown for almost a year, no doubt bolstered by the further hit singles Last Train To Trancentral (Live at SSL) followed by two songs that were radically remixed for release as singles – Justified & Ancient (Stand By The JAMs), featuring Tammy Wynette and America: What Time Is Love?, both of which were Top 10 hits.

He said: “Me and my wife were outside Constellations on Wednesday lunchtime and we were looking for things. There was a load of plywood leant against a wall and my wife pulled one out and we saw it had this artwork on it.
