I don't read German. Where did they come from? It looks like they're just available for download and not on an actually CD. (I'm old school, but I'll definitely download these!) They sound great from the clips.

Jon G and Nic, You do realize there are hundreds of retailers online that will sell you current Yello releases as well as practically everything they have ever released. eBay is a gold mine for Yello. If you have an internet connection everything Yello is available to you. I work closely with the biggest Yello collector in the world and he lives in the UK. You would not believe the obscure Yello items he has been able to get his hands on. Is there something you are trying to find. I can find it for you and send you a link. , Jonathan

Has anyone seen the new FOX TV show GLEE? The New York Times says it may be single handedly rejuvenating the defunct music industry. The show is a 1 hour quirky comedy about the trials and tribulations of a high school Glee club. Mixed in the show are several musical numbers. The kids sing cover versions of famous hit songs. Those cover versions are available on iTunes after the show. The show has only been on a few weeks and their first soundtrack CD has already gone gold! The profits are split among the original artists and everyone on the show. When Rhiannas song played on the show she saw a 200% increase in profits of her original track. Madonna has caught wind of this and is now making her entire library available to the show. All the people on the show do there own singing and they are all extremely gifted singers. The show is an overnight phenomenon. Television could be the new direction for the music industry. Reach millions of people instantly!

Okay , I am frustrated. Have been a UK Yello fan since 1983. Over the past ten years I feel through crap marketing and bad distribution Yello have become a cult band (basically you cannot get new yello stuff on the High Street anymore) I only got to know about the new CD through the Internet and yet there has been nothing in HMV etc... How are Yello going to reach out tuto a new fanbase? You cannot get hold of the product in England and this frustrates me. It forces people to illegally download and I think it is all because the way Yello are marketed - niche marketing! They are such an influential band but there has been no media exposure. I just don't get it ? Jon G

I see Universal has the track time for Umbria 2:27 which is very close to the Progress and Perfection time 2:32 so will probably be the same track.

Here is a track list with track times from Amazon.de (Yes I noticed they forgot track 18 Umbria) Which was the one track I was waiting to see the time for. I wanted to see if it was the same as the Progress and Perfection version or if the changed it since then. One noticeable difference is X-Race is twice as long as the version of the Race on the DVD. So it could be extended or completely different. The DVD is about 41 minutes long. I thought they always talked about the film being 50 minutes long. So is anything missing? Till Tomorrow is 3:31 on the DVD and 4:17 on the CD The Expert is 2:55 on the CD -- 3:17 on the Sampler CD -- and 3:52 on the DVD! an entire extra minute on the DVD! Hopefully 30 second samples will be coming soon. CD 1 / The Expert 02:55 2 / You Better Hide 04:15 3 / Out Of Dawn 03:13 4 / Bostich (Reflected) 03:57 5 / Till Tomorrow 04:17 6 / Tangier Blue 02:42 7 / Part Love 03:42 8 / Friday Smile 03:36 9 / Kiss In Blue 03:34 10 / Vertical Vision 04:18 11 / Trackless Deep 03:20 12 / Stay 03:02 13 / Electric Frame 03:36 14 / Takla Makan 08:33 15 / X-Race 04:12 16 / Petro Oleum 03:03 17 / Oh Yeah 02:27 19 / Bostich (Duck Mobile) 03:23 20 / Scorpio Rising 04:33 DVD 1 / Intro 01:45 2 / Till Tomorrow 03:31 3 / The Expert 03:52 4 / You Better Hide 04:20 5 / Out Of Dawn 03:12 6 / Bostich (Reflected) 03:58 7 / Kiss In Blue 03:40 8 / Vertical Vision 04:15 9 / Tiger Dust 03:18 10 / Tangier Blue 02:41 11 / Oh Yeah 02:23 12 / The Race 02:06 13 / Credits 01:34

Jon G, Ebay has everything. New and second hand. Many walk in stores have their own store on eBay. Touch Yello was available for pre-order on eBay from several eBay stores. Honestly Yello is more accessible now then it ever has been. The last Yello album I walked into a store and bought was One Second. Flag, Essential, Zebra and Baby were all bought by my friends parents who would travel to Germany once a year and bring them back for us. Since then I have bought everything through the internet. Its just the direction the music business has gone. Actually that was one of the cool things about Yello. When you had a Yello album you had something amazing and rare. It was cherished. Yello has been doing their music their way for 30 years. I don't think you or anyone else will change them. The Eye is available on UK iTunes so I am sure eventually Touch Yello will be as well.

I always felt that Boris and Dieter were very artistic fellows and never did this for fame or fortune. I think they love doing what they are doing creating and expressing themselves through music and thats all that matters to them. They certainly have the talent and ability to be a world sensation but that just isn't important.
