I have gotten all of my yello cd's from Edinburgh from the usual music superstores. But when my house was burgled and all of my priceless yello collection was nicked (swines!) I restocked in Amsterdam of all places. They had all of the albums. This is my first comments, and would like to thank all of you for your info. I find it amazing how you find it all! P.s am just learning with all this techno so find all of the previous 'discussions' about formats very amusing. I don't know how all of it works but just glad to get it!

Well the last album that was commercially available here in Vancouver was Zebra. I got my copy of The Eye when my sister-in-law bought it in the UK and brought it over for me. There's some good stuff to be found occasionally in the used record stores, though. Glad I didn't toss my Record Player (aka turntable to you younger types ;-) /RF ________________________________ From: yello-bounces+rfiler=sierrawireless.com(a)mailman.xmission.com [mailto:yello-bounces+rfiler=sierrawireless.com@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Mark Pearce Sent: Thursday, June 16, 2005 10:53 AM To: The moon: beautiful.

Subject: Re: [Yello] False Claims of Yello's Demise Hi... good to hear that yello is not the way out, but in the UK I'm starting to find it hard to find some cd's like for example Motion Picture. bought it in the Kiev only place I saw it, with Russian Copy right written on it. might have to start looking on the net videos and singles it's a pain sometimes trying to find yello in the shops.

False Claims of Yello's Demise

I know the subject line sounds like a shocker, but my mother just returned from floating down the Danube (Donau) and on her return checked for me in several music stores in Frankfurt. More than one of them told her that Yello was no more! Too bad she didn't call me from one of the stores - I'd have set them straight. Too bad she didn't look at music stores in Zurich - she only passed through on the train. Oh Well.

Boris and Billy united!

Classic Yello tracks such as Rubberbandman and Of Course I'm Lying feature Billy's vocals in the background, but I think the tracks Moon On Ice and Capri Calling which places the late Scottish singer's voice in center stage truly stand out. At the time of Mackenzie's passing in 1997, he and Boris had almost an hour's worth of nearly-completed tracks which have never been released. Boris stated in an interview that he had planned to finish the tracks and release them as a full album, but this was shortly after Billy's suicide and Blank just couldn't bring himself to do it. Does anyone know if Boris has made any progress on this project? I can't blame him for being reluctant to work on a project in which one of the participants is no longer alive, but I was just curious. In the years since Billy Mackenzie's death, his music has gained almost a cult status amongst the Euro-rock listeners. Every time something of his is (re-) released, it sells out fast and for a lot more than it had when the singer was alive. Go figure. In any case, if the Billy/Boris collaboration is ever made available to the public, I'll be one of the first buyers.

Mark Pulley wrote: Of course, if you want really good quality sound, you could buy the CD. 'Outernational' (The Billy album that 'Baby' was taken from) is being reissued at the end of the year, and there are other Boris Blank tracks on it as well. (The Associates albums 'The Affectionate Punch' (original version), and 'Wild and Lonely' are also being reissued, but there are no Boris tracks on these.) Mark P. ----------------------------------------- Mark, This is great news! Boris did 4 great tracks on that album. That album is very hard to get. The CD sells for over $50 on eBay Here are the credits from Outernational. Boris did tracks 7, 8, 9 and 10 http://homepage.mac.com/jonathankamm/outernational-credits.jpg I'm saving my money there will be a lot to buy at the end of this year! : ) Thanks Mark! ,Jonathan

Hello, Here is what happens when two greats come together. Boris Blank and Billy Mackenzie. The track is called "Baby" from the Billy Mackenzie Maxi CD of the same name. All the music is Boris and the vocals are Billy. Enjoy! The format is .m4a or AAC playable now in most all updated players . I personally suggest iTunes or QuickTime. Both are free. he-he http://homepage.mac.com/jonathankamm/Baby-Mackenzie.m4a ,Jonathan

Boris and Billy, Baby

Organism, Thanks for all the info. Very impressive! I listened to the original .aif file and the tearing sound you hear is present in the original. ogg I think is a good format and has been around quite a while but just has never quite caught on and will probably go the way of the betamax. Most everyone has heard of mp3's and now AAC files are just as popular. The Baby AAC file I put up was a 128kbs file which is equal to a 256kbs mp3 in sound quality but both have relatively the same file size. I have replaced the Baby AAC file I originally posted with one at 192kbs which should be more then enough. Check it out and let me know what all your gizmos say. http://homepage.mac.com/jonathankamm/Baby-Mackenzie.m4a , Jonathan
