Whitney and the KLF would have gong well as a combination, they both took £1,000,000 and turned it into smoke.

"The Chart Show" video.
A friend filmed them driving to 'The Chart Show' studio in Cauty's repainted Ford Galaxie American police car (Ford Timelord 23).
According to Drummond, "When we got there, we took out the cassette, handed it in at the gate and said 'that's your video'! The next day it was on national TV. It cost us £19.96".
In May 1992, The KLF deleted their entire back catalogue and destroyed all their merchandise to prove their break-up was not a stunt to sell more records.

'We booked the studio for five days. I went around to the record shop near the studio to get hold of 'Shaft' & in the window was a big cut-out of Whitney Houston. I love that track, and I loved Whitney Houston then, and I just said 'Wow', and bought the album. We just played that track over and over again, and we just thought: "no point us making records when such fantastic records as this have been made". And that's how that track grew into a celebration of Whitney Houston.'

@PhoenixxxStar I think it was meant to be a send up but even with Bill's screaming, it's still a powerful and exciting track and was the first time I recall hearing sampling of others records into a new track. Amazing.

@rhodkemp2 Yeah that's a great track that samples Downtown and some choir singing but it should be easy to get as it was never banned, so I hope someone loads it up here
