Cat: 356022 8. Rel: 3 May 21
Coldwave/Synth
You can easily understand why Yello could rue the day they finished the seminal track 'Oh Yeah'. A bumbling and eccentric synth pop workout that almost sounds like someone got their first Casio keyboard and started playing something with all the weird and wonderful noises stored in its limited memory banks, while the track itself should have been destined for obscurity successive Hollywood movies of the 1980s had different ideas.
Hence the tune is etched into the common conscious. What many people don't realise, though, is how much of a flash in the pan Yello weren't, and how that track is just one moment in a relentlessly adventurous 40 year career. Hence this collection looking to showcase everything else that happened. Some of which, perhaps surprisingly, could be seen as paving the way for the likes of Alabama 3. Don't worry, though, 'Oh Yeah' is on here, too.
