The story of producing a Whitney album (or at least a single) rings a bell ... maybe something in the sleeve notes collage of "Shag Times"? Anyway, PSB similarities also include their "Go West" (released the same month as "K Cera Cera" in Israel) using the Red Army Choir, and "Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You/ Where The Streets Have No Name" complete with sampled crowd noise and a JAMMs-like collision of two songs. Erasure similarities include "Chorus (Pure Trance Mix)" by Youth - presumably named by him, too; and "Love To Hate You" (which has the same Stadium House-like audience samples).

I had a feeling I remember reading somewhere way back (late 80s early 90s) that the KLF were approached by the likes of Madonna to produce / remix her stuff...maybe off the back of their treatment of Whitney Joins the JAMS?...or perhaps it was Whitney later on?
far too long ago for me to substantiate though.

I'm sure they must have been approached (not least by the Pet Shop Boys, and Erasure's 1991 album "Chorus" features some very Stadium-House-like tracks - and wasn't there a rumour of U2?) but turned everyone down apart from Wah (who hadn't had a big hit since "The Story of the Blues" nearly 10 years earlier). Imagine if Drummond and Cauty had like Oakenfold and Osborne ... that could have been interesting!> > John
