Hi all, It's been a slow day here as you may guess from this email, so apologies in advance. While trawling through some old LPs I came across one by Wendy O. Williams. I had little memory of buying the LP, so I took to google to find out more about her and the music. It turns out that she appeared on TV in 1981 sporting a frontwards facing horn - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iij2_JvHGr8&feature=endscreen&NR=1 ... looks familiar n'est pas? (2K Live at the Barbican - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JjfBVvyBH5o). This sparked a little more interest and I found that she'd done a duet with Lemmy from Motorhead ('Ace of Spades' by Motorhead was sampled on A:WTIL). The duet was 'Stand By Your Man' - a song written and originally performed by Tammy Wynette - who appears on J&A. Wendy used to apply cellotape to her nipples to avoid arrest during gigs - something that Cressida did on the video to A:WTIL. Tenuous, definitely...but odd there's a few links between the KLF and Wendy. ...back to what I should be doing! Cheerio Neil
Can I be the first to say...very tenuous, but entirely feasible! Very interesting links!
