Biography

The ambitious Swiss electronic duo Yello comprised vocalist/conceptualist Dieter Meier -- a millionaire industrialist, professional gambler, and member of Switzerland's national golf team -- and composer/arranger Boris Blank. Meier, a former solo artist who also spent time with the group Fresh Colour, began collaborating with Blank in 1979, and the duo bowed with the single "I.T. Splash."

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing album!, August 30, 2004
By Trent Valory (Troy, New York) - See all my reviews
I'm a fan of classic/progressive/hard rock stuff (Led Zeppelin, Rush, Pink Floyd etc.) and Yello's 80s albums are the only machine-based music that really impresses me.

Flag isn't exactly like anything else I've heard. It's ridiculously attractive album and "Third of June" is one of the most powerful rock songs I've heard. Yes I said "rock" because this album really rocks. In different kind of way though.

This is also the only album that EVERYONE I have played it loves immediately. It's amazing that this wasn't a HUGE hit when it originally came out. Stella, Flag and You gotta say yes... are Yello in their prime.

Personally, I don't care about the new techno stuff at all, they should never abandon this original and experimental stuff they did in the 80's. This album is amazing, I own about 3000 CD's and this easily goes to my top 10.

Priceless.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfection, November 28, 2001
By "gdatlanta" (Atlanta, Georgia USA) - See all my reviews
This album is a good follow-up to "One Second". Very similar in sound, although this record is more thematic in the concept of a race. Flawless musicianship, perfect mixes, unbelievable clarity and a barrage of well-written, well-contrived material adds up to another great album by a great band.

5.0 out of 5 stars Majestic and Expansive, January 31, 2000
By S P Brady (Rehoboth Beach, DE United States) - See all my reviews
If they ever make a movie version of 'Speed Racer' this would be the soundtrack. Of all the albums by Yello, this one is the gem that get's played the most. The best cross-country driving CD of all time!

5.0 out of 5 stars A must hear from yello
Yello is a very difficult to catalog in one space. They mix what they want and how they want. To know about them, you MUST hear The Race at high volume in your HiFi equipment. Read more

I've seen people walking around with this tucket neatly under the arms and wondered if they could possibly understand that what they hold is a piece of God.
