Julian, I don't think they would include tracks from Eccentrix and New Mix In One Go if they weren't re-mastered. Those tracks are readily available. I would think they are all re-mastered. Sure they can't give us all the tracks we want. But this is the biggest release they have ever had. We can't complain about this. September will be a Yello listening marathon for me. ,Jonathan

Very cool it is. Strange but cool. So much for creative license.

The Race On DVD Promo Trailer
by Jon Kamm 06 May '05

Hi, I'd like you guys to listen to this. Laurens pointed it out to me. It's the audio from a promo on the new Elektra DVD. The promo comes before the movie. It promos the 20th Century Fox movies "I, Robot", "X-Men 2", "Hide And Seek" and "Flight Of The Phoenix" The audio was definitely influenced by Yello's "The Race" but I also hear some other things in there. Weird vocals and stuff. I was hoping you guys would know the other songs in there in hopes there is a DJ mix of this or something. So take a listen. Give me you thoughts. http://homepage.mac.com/jonathankamm/TheRace-ElektraPreviews.m4a , Jonathan

Huge smile appears, lingers on... Wow. I've been on this list for some time, but rarely post. I don't feel I have a lot to say usually, but I did just get the new vinyl re-issues, including both red and green Claros. Thanks to Jonas for the early tip to ensure bonus 12-inches!! Of course, these are in addition to my original Ralph and UK Do-It issues. Great package and 150-gram vinyl = super-exciting! No turntable nearby, have to wait until I'm home... They ship very quickly from Deutschland to USA, but it was costly Dave Gilleran

Slightly off topic

I'm not a musician, but many on this list are. Yahoo has posted one of their picks (a website which they think is worthy of a special mention) - a website called "The Alan Lomax Database". Apparently on this site you can obtain samples of music created by Ethnomusicologist Alan Lomax, free for your own use. It sounds a little like that sampler of Yello sounds from the Mountedbythegods material. So I thought it was worth a mention here, in case anyone wanted some free material to work into their compositions. I didn't check out the database myself, but the description sounded pretty good. I just checked this 5 minutes ago and it was still accessible. Apologies if you can't actually navigate to it, but there's always google. http://picks.yahoo.com/picks/i/20050501.html Cheers Rory

Resistor at May Day?
by Juhana Sadeharju 01 May '05

Would anyone have the Resistor performed live at May Day? Besides not yet having the live recording, I have been always curious on how Yello makes live performances. The Live at the Roxy live recording and video have been most interesting with this respect.
