If it was not for the internet and downloads and so on, in the UK they would be a dead group. Is it the record companies fault? Surely Yello have a say?
Well, publishing and advertising an album is expensive, especially if you have to translate everything to English and produce two sets of marketing material for German-speaking and English-speaking markets. Perhaps Yello's record company has noticed that they are not making any profit in England, and therefore don't want to market the band there. One cannot expect Yello to use tens of thousands of swiss francs of their own money to make their music easily available to everybody in England. If Yello's music just isn't selling there, there's no sense in publishing the album with a big campaign.
Here in Finland Yello albums are to be found in some record stores, although Touch Yello's current status is "sold out" at my local store. But they are expecting to have more CDs soon.
