I have agreed with both of the past comments you mention which produced a flurry of activity on the list. I think everybody is supportive of all of the diverse opinions (even the wrong ones, ha ha). -----Original Message----- From: yello-bounces+tourguide=austexecotours.com@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:yello-bounces+tourguide=austexecotours.com@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Rory Filer Sent: Thursday, May 26, 2005 12:35 PM To: The moon: beautiful.

I'll have to give that a try myself! As for The The, I enjoy the music almost as much as Yello, though the lyrics are hard to take sometimes. I picked up an album of theirs about 5 years ago (can't recall the name) with great expectations and only liked 1 track - a nice acoustic one. Start contract to the cacophany that was the rest of the album. In my view, only Yello has the staying power to be able to produce fresh music after all these years.Someone else on the list said Yello is a parody of its former self. I disagree with that, although the music has clearly changed. Be careful about saying stuff like this though. I once made a comment that I thought Boris was having "issues" during the production of Pocket Universe and it provoked a couple of irate responses to the list! Watch what you say! Generally, this is a good list with usually excellent content.

From New Zealand. 36 year old guy. Have all Yello albums on cd plus a few cd singles too. Have been reading the The The post from Rory - I have all of Matt's albums on cd plus a few singles also. Other musical interests are Kraftwerk along with most forms of electronic/house/dance; Moloko, Mylo, Bob Sinclair, Chemical Bros, Kid Loco, Way Out West, Leftfield etc. I also enjoy motorcycles (own a Suzuki RF900) and watching racing - mainly MotoGP. Really looking forward to the remasters and new album. Chris
