The voice of Sandy Denny works on me in a different way than the voice of Roy Orbison, but both are able to reduce me to an emotional wreck."

Title: Re: Sandy Denny makes Bill Drummond's ultimate list Post by: macademis on April 17, 2012, 02:28:27 PM Who is Bill Drummond? ??? Wikipedia says: "William Ernest Drummond (born 29 April 1953, Butterworth, South Africa) is a Scottish artist, musician, writer and record producer. He was the co-founder of late 1980s avant-garde pop group The KLF and its 1990s media-manipulating successor, the K Foundation, with which he burned a million pounds in 1994. More recent art activities, carried out under Drummond's chosen banner of the Penkiln Burn, include making and distributing cakes, soup, flowers, beds and shoe-shines. More recent music projects include No Music Day, and the international tour of a choir called The17. Drummond is the author of several books about art and music."

And the other flannel? The guy reeks of inflated self-importance and ego-driven knobbery. Well to be fair, he based his whole career on those twin qualities, and he seems to have done alright. I don't understand the "and the other flannel" part though. ??? Jules Title: Re: Sandy Denny makes Bill Drummond's ultimate list Post by: Addie on April 19, 2012, 06:22:48 PM KLF gonna rock ya! 8) 8)
