Everybody knows that Boris and Dieter like playing golf. But did you know that a golf club very close to my place is called < Blue Green > and is one of the most beautiful golf in Europe ? Do B&D ever come here ?! . Damned. GREG

RE: [Yello] The Eye (of the secret agent ?) - the spy album

Go on, all of you. Keep on bragging about listening to The Eye, but I'll get my chance in January when my copy is brought over from the UK. Just leave some comments unsaid so I can have a little fun, eh? -----Original Message----- From: VIALLE Gregory [mailto:gvialle@evc.net] Sent: Thursday, December 11, 2003 11:30 AM To: 'The moon: beautiful. The sun: even more beautiful.' Subject: [Yello] The Eye (of the secret agent ?) - the spy album It's funny... (?!) But it's a couple of times now I'm listening The Eye and its fabulous sound fulling my living room and everytime I'm listening it, I can catch the feeling to listen to some spy music film... PLANET DADA MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE theme in the main melody. JUNIOR B James Bond track next generation. TIGER DUST Propellerheads influence (they made a remix of James Theme too). In general I can hear the album like a mission for the spy we are all about... ;) GREG _______________________________________________ Yello mailing list Yello(a)mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/yello

RE: RE : [Yello] Solid Pleasure
by Rory Filer 11 Dec '03

If you're referring to the hypnotic trip in Downtown Samba, I've spent many hours listening to that track and I'm pretty certain the words are a station identification for Porto Rican national television and radio. If you listen to it long enough you'll hear: Aqui a la radio television de puerto rico lo statione With the "a" following "aqui" just a euphonic addition. I.e. it's not a word it's just there "for kicks". It almost sounds like a voice from a shortwave radio as they identify themselves to the world. I really like it. Must be Spanish from Porto Rico or something. Rory -----Original Message----- From: jussalmi [mailto:jussalmi@it.utu.fi] Sent: Thursday, December 11, 2003 2:05 AM To: The moon: beautiful.

But I didn't think it was exactly the same, in Solid Pleasure he says something like "akialargiotelevisione...", but it's very close.

Hello Christopher Dowlen and all. When you reply, specially if you reply to digest, **please** edit the quoted text down to minimum. It is really pain in ass to check out the new mails if there are older complete digests inside the digest. Could the mail server be configured automatically delete the long quoted texts and leave only a few lines from begin and end? We would need such a babysitter here. :) Regards, Juhana

I'm new here. Which albums would I chose? I remember being in an audiophile stereo store and being entranced by One Second. I have never to this day grown bored with it. A tropical dream scape. The other album would be Motion Picture. It gives Thevery Corporation a run for it's money!! All of Yello's albums are a must for anyone who is an audiophile and not a mainstreamer. Can anyone answer some questions for me? Has there been a release of any Yello on SACD or DVD Audio formats? Any vinyl of the recent three albums? Any 1/2 speed, Japanese, or virgin vinyl of any of the older albums?

YELLO for the uninitiated...
by Gerard Donelan 07 Dec '03

07 Dec '03

If you were asked to give 2 Yello albums to someone who appeared to have at least: a) Above average open mindedness about music b) No awareness of Yello (does not know that "Oh Yeah" was a Yello tune) c) May actually devote an hour or so listening to a single album - hoping in the back of their mind - to discover their next favorite album Which 2 would you choose? Thanks...gad

This is not an easy one to answer. As you can see, everyone has a different combination of recommendations. Well as I indicated a couple of weeks ago, from Boris' mouth directly comes the three recommendations for his favorite Yello albums: - Solid Pleasure - The Essential Yello - Zebra ------------ The Essential Yello is a good pick as a sampler. But of all their albums, I personally like every track - except Blender. Because Essential takes samples from earlier albums, you hear them out of context. Not as they were in the original album. It depends upon who you are giving this to. If they have a short attention span then I'd say go with Essential. But if they have some stamina then I'd say pick a pair of albums from the other recommendations. My two favorites are: - You Gotta Say Yes to Another Excess (my initiation into Yello) - The Race -----Original Message----- From: Gerard Donelan To: yello(a)mailman.xmission.com Sent: 07/12/03 3:24 AM Subject: [Yello] YELLO for the uninitiated...

Keys interview?
by Juhana Sadeharju 07 Dec '03

07 Dec '03

Hello. Finally something happens! Could anyone who has ordered the Keys magazine with Boris interview check the following: -How many pages -Any detailed photo from the Yello's Zurich studio -Any gear listing -Has the CD any WAV samplefiles made by Boris -What those Absynth2 stuff on the CD are; are they sounds or sequences or what? Directory listings of Boris stuff on the CD would be nice. If, when, if ever, I get the magazine and CD, I will find Absynth2 owner who could run the stuff on Absynth2 and record them for us who do not have Absynth2. Has anyone of you the Absynth2 manual and preset listings? I would like to have a copy. Regards, Juhana
