I have to agree that after Baby, the remixes seemed to lose that magic that made the originals so special. Not in every case, but in some of them. Particularly after Zebra, the numerous remix CDs got a little tedious to listen to (how many times can someone remix How How and keep a little originality in each track?). That's not to say that I think any less of Yello. I just wish that more emphasis were put on creating new material than pumping out updated versions of previously released tracks. Doing some remixes are a great idea, but not at the expense of keeping the output generally fresh and original. As for Oh Yeah Indian Summer Music Version (the 4:42 version on the B side of the 7inch vinyl single), I fell in love with it from the first time I heard it back in 1987. It's still a track I enjoy listening to. I also cherish every version of She's Got A Gun I've heard. And I really enjoy listening to Hands On Yello. So I'm not totally opposed to remixes, but I would prefer they were the exception rather than the rule. Long Live Yello!! Tom Savoy
