YELLO – One Second (2022 Reissue) – LP + 12″ – Black / Blue Vinyl

LP + 12″- Limited 2 Disc Reissue Edition of the album on black vinyl plus a coloured blue vinyl 12″ featuring “Goldrush I” and “Goldrush II” on Side 1 and “Shes Got A Gun” (Live At The Palladium N.Y.) on Side 2.

Hugely influential on the dance and electronic music that came after them, Yello also have the distinction of being the best band ever from Switzerland.

Operating between pop, dance and a deliciously self-aware kind of avant-garde, Yello paralleled the artful-yet-playful moves of New York’s Ze Records, while also evoking an elegant European sensibility.

One Second finds the duo mining an increasingly conservative stylistic vein, serving up sophisticated adult pop with occasional latin accents. Boris composed and arranged the music, Dieter wrote and sings the lyrics.

Billy Mackenzie of The Associates contributes lyrics and histrionic vocals to the romantic ballad “Moon On Ice,” while Shirley Bassey outdoes him with an even bigger diva turn on “The Rhythm Divine,” the album’s grandiose high point.

This limitededition reissue of the album also includesablue coloured vinyl 12″ featuring”Goldrush I” and “Goldrush II” on Side 1 and “Shes Got A Gun” (Live At The Palladium N.Y.) on Side 2.
