I need a bottle of that beer, but they used Shadow's face to illustrate the Man from Mo' Wax? 🤔

They've just announced that the Q&A will be streamed live on the Man From MoWax Facebook page at 1045pm tonight (or 730am Friday morning in Australia for me )
Is anyone here going?

A couple of new interviews are up with Lavelle that offer some more insights: Clash Music (Lavelle talks about all his collaborators): www.clashmusic.com/features/in-conversation-james-lavelleRansom Note (has an exclusive scene): www.theransomnote.com/culture/interviews/waxing-lyrical/Is it strange looking back at the seven years between 'Where Did The Night Fall' and 'The Road', and how much the industry changed in that time?"Yeah. Yeah. A lot. Believe me... I had, unfortunately, a few upheavals. For instance, the documentary doesn’t talk about the fact that my last business partner is in jail for £200m tax fraud and that’s why we fell out… The guy who funded my last label and the reason that I fell out with everybody and the reason that I was upset with Pablo [Clements] was because he stayed with that person and that guy stole everything. He took my catalogue and is now in jail for the biggest tax fraud of its time… And I’m still, to this day, trying to get my catalogue back. So, there are a lot of crazy stories to round it all off.., I really don’t want to sound negative though because I always say that there are many truths. There are always two sides to a story."

That's crazy! Has this story been told before, or is that new information? Stealing his catalogue? Never heard that before.

yea - that's NUTS
but believable... I mean, looking back at the "Where Did the Night Fall" era, and that period leading up to 'the Road'
it did kind of feel like things were just haphazardly being released
or quick projects to earn some $$$ - which I don't fault - I mean, JL's got to earn a living.
BTW - there was another interview with JL today on Facebook/ITV

Agree about the War-Stories->WDTNF era - releases seemed to become a bit scattershot. Wasn't 'Another Night Out' supposed to be a standalone album (Sure Pablo even hinted there was another Ian Brown track lined up for it)... guess relationships were quickly going sour and it was a case of getting stuff out the door before it got impossible. Watched the Q&A this morning, interesting watch - suspect James has been through some media training with respect to promoting the film - various answers and stories have been repeated almost word for word in several interviews over the last few weeks, so no majorly exciting revelations. Interesting to hear that Pablo wasn't even in the original-working-cut. Wonder if he was one of the people who originally said a flat "NO" to being featured (like we're led to believe Tim did), but later changed his mind? Also if anyone's like me and been waiting for the Blu-Ray, spotted the 3-disc set is now £18.99 here: www.base.com/buy/product/the-man-from-mowax-limited-to-3000-numbered-3-disc-sets-dvd/dgc-bfib1309.htmAlso list of extras has been updated: 48 printed pages featuring foreword by James Lavelle and director's notes Photos from B+, Will Bankhead, Beezer, James Dimmock, Warren Du Preez and Nick Thornton Jones Artwork from Futura, Robert Del Naja (3D), Ken Taylor, Swifty and Ben Drury Audio commentary by director Matthew Jones Audio commentary by producer M J McMahon Theatrical trailer Teaser trailer The Mo'Wax Vaults: Extended interview with James Lavelle and DJ Shadow (2018, 68 mins) The Mo'Wax Vaults: The Lost Men from Unkle (2018, 14 mins): featurette on the early pre Psyence Fiction UNKLE and how DJ Shadow came into the fold. The Mo'Wax Vaults: Interview Mix Tape (2018, 25 mins): extended interview mash-up with Joshua Homme, Futura, DJ Shadow, Ian Brown and more The Mo'Wax Vaults: Asthetic Origins (2018, 22 mins): designers Swifty and Ben Drury with artist Futura discuss the stories and methodology behind the Mo'Wax visual identity The Mo'Wax Vaults: UNKLE Mark 4 : (2018, 16 mins) Matt Puffett & Jack Leonard, key collaborators on UNKLE album The Road discuss their latest incarnation of UNKLE and working with James Lavelle.

Thanks! Saw the film for the first time last night. It's great. I was properly nerding out for most of it. Best bit by far was the interview with Lavelle and Shadow on that MTV news programme. His face.

Looks like it's just using the version of the cover that uses 'Psyence Fiction orange', as it's officially being called.
