Yello

@Eric Generic I was just reading your comments from 2014 and stumbled over your Yello-anthology. I have to say Kisch In Sync is such a perfect title! It´s SO Yello! Any chance of posting a track list? If it´s not too much of a hassle?

I am on a Yello trip since yesterday. There is really nothing like them. They will be re-discovered by future generations to come!

Really enjoying 'Toy' ... perhaps outstays its welcome with so many tracks but there's a quite wonderful 12 track album in there. Highlights so far: 'Limbo'; '30,000 Days'; 'Electrified II'; 'Kiss The Cloud'; 'Dark Side' and 'Pacific AM' and as always the production throughout is exquisite.

The guest vocals are very strange on this one as they tend to sound like sound-a-likes.
I had to double check that Give You The World is NOT sung bey Kelis and some of the more whispy vocals sound almost identical to Stina Nordestam. The soundscapes on Blue Biscuit make me miss Billy Mackenzie even more. Just imagine, he would still be able to be present on these songs.

Playing it for the first time, sounds amazing, so precisely produced. I've missed a few of the recent albums, are they worth getting? I have all the 'classic' albums.

An Immaculate Collection for sure! Sounds so good nice and loud. I really must get those missing later albums.

The only Yello studio album I have is 'Flag' and it's a bit too long and repetitive for me, but 'Essential Yello' works as it's a selection of excellent and varied edited highlights from the band.

I guess it's like how to me a lot of classical music is long and samey, but give me a few of the chosen best and most distinctive pieces edited down without all the "faff" and I might really like them!

Led Zeppelin too. If only they'd just edit out all those endless guitar and drum solos....

Flag is their worst/weakest album of that 1980-1992 run; I remember feeling so disappointed with it on release. Obviously the two singles are classics, and Tied Up is fine in single form, but they were clearly stuck for inspiration or pushed for time (it felt way too soon after the imperious One Second). There are about 3 versions of Tied Up on the album, and it's only got about 8 tracks in total! The Race takes up almost a quarter of the entire running time.

Any words/thoughts on the new YELLO 40 YEARS collection?
The Mellow Yello CD has a promising track list...not too mad about a full remix CD, some of the mixes are pretty mediocre as far as I remember.
