Subject: (yello) As original as Yello

I would also have to put Ozric Tentacles into this group.   Talk about being
able to create movies in your head!
I've been a die-hard Yello fan since 1982, and a die-hard Ozric fan since
1990.  They are by far the two best groups I've ever heard.

Subject: (yello) Squeeze Please

I finally received my copy of Squeeze Please from CDNow after a six week
wait, and I think I like the single more than I do the album MP!  For some
reason MP has failed to grow on me, the first couple of listens were good,
but since then it has slipped down my new release stack.

Also wanted to comment on a couple of recent issues that have popped up, on
the language debate I think if Yello are going to concentrate on the German
market as they have for the last couple of CDs then maybe they should record
in German, why not?  Yello has made it quite clear that they consider their
power base Europe (since that is the only place they release their CDs!)
they might as well record in their native tounge.  I've set down my
adventures in trying to obtain Yello material here in Colorado and it's a
struggle in frustration and will test your patience in waiting for a music
online service to import them.  As a long forgotten sage once said,
"Anything worth having is worth waiting for."  I couldn't agree more.

To Larry Sanders, welcome to the group!  American participation has been
lacking, in answer to your question as to who provides background music
equal to Yello  I've been hooked on the FLA/Delerium consortium for a while
now, but as to someone transporting you to another place the only CD that
I've heard lately that will take you away is Nine Inch Nails - The Fragile.

Note to all:  Yesterday I picked up the new Kraftwerk Euro2000 single, as
much as I hate to say this because I love Kraftwerk, leave this one alone!
Kraftwerk's day has surely passed and this is almost embarrasing.

This wasn't actually the issue, which was more to do with a request for
English translations of German interviews/press coverage. Yello (unlike
Kraftwerk) have almost never released any material (certainly to my
knowledge) sung in German and it would be a little strange if they started
doing so now. The post also gives the impression that it is Yello's own
decision only to release material in continental Europe, which as far as I'm
aware is NOT the case - it stems more from the unwillingness of record
companies in Europe and America to offer them anything other than a short
term contract, a situation they view as totally unsatisfactory.

IMHO I couldn't disagree more about the comments about the Kraftwerk single,
but then I have little or no time for NIN who just represent to me a highly
commercialised watered-down version of KMFDM, Ministry etc etc.

There haven't been many posts to this list recently and I'm a little sad that
they all tend to be so negative about MP which is a thoroughly worthwhile
Yello album as far as I'm concerned - but everyone's entitled to their own
opinion..............

Subject: (yello) Yello CD

Hi, I am looking for the self-titled album of Yello.  I believe it is
the first album they released.  Can you help me find it.  If you do
find it, please let me know how much it costs including shipment.
Thanks.

 Howdy all!

 Anyone know what the difference is between the 5 cut and the 7 cut
single of Squeeze Please? Are these Boris remixes? (he asked, crossing
his fingers)

 I like the new disc. Reminds me of early yello. Much cleaner
"orchestration" than Pocket Universe. I love Dieter's contribution to
the end product, but I wish Boris would do an entire album of
instrumental works like Point Blank, Stalakdrama, Homer Hossa, Ciel
Ouvert, Salut Mayoumba etc.

 Cheers,

 Joseph
