It got terrible reviews andprobably was terrible. I've only heard one songe from it, Rednecks. And that one was pretty bad. Does anybody have that album? I'd like to hear the whole thing. Also, If anybody has it and could make a MP3 out of Rednecks, I'd be very happy. Thanks Bo, Also, I'm on the lookout of an early 80's album by swedish Caramba. It was a major hit at least in Scandinavia, but I think also in the rest of Europe - Hubba Hubba Zoot Zoot was the hit. Does anybody have MP3's or know where I can get this album?

For those of you not fluent in German, visit the link below for on-the-fly web page translation as well as phrases and just typing. http://babelfish.altavista.digital.com For example, in the (yello) Interview message, this paragraph when cut and pasted into the translate window, becomes: - ---------- «Film ist ein Massenmedium», hält Dieter Meier, Yello-Musiker und inzwischen Hollywood-Regisseur im Interview mit CASH fest. Würden die Massen nach Sinn suchenden, mittelalterlichen Männern dürsten, wie sie im Euro-Kino durch ihre Midlife-Crisis stolpern, oder nach neurotischen, krebskranken Frauen, die vor der Kamera mit ihrem Leben abschliessen - Hollywood liesse die beiden zueinander finden. Die menschlichen Schicksale und Tragödien des Alltags decken aber für die meisten den Bedarf mehr als genug ab. Ihnen steht der Sinn nach Fantastischem, Romantischem und Überkandideltem, wo Männer noch zu Helden aufblühen und Frauen Göttinnen gleich verehrt werden können. Diesen Durst weiss die Illusionsfabrik Hollywood immer noch am besten zu stillen, ohne dabei das Lukrative der Kinokunst zu vergessen. «The show must go on.» " film is a mass medium ", holds Dieter Meier, Yello musician and in the meantime Hollywood director in the interview with CASH. Became the masses after sense looking up, medieval men duersten, like them in the euro-cinema by their Midlife Crisis stolpern, or after neuro desks, cancer-ill women, who lock before the camera with their life - Hollywood would let the two find to each other. The human fates and tragedies of the everyday life cover however for most the requirement more than enough. The sense is to them after Fantasti, romantic one and Ueberkandideltem, where men blossom still to heroes and Mrs. equal Goettinnen can be admired. To satisfy this thirst white the illusion factory Hollywood still best, without forgetting thereby the lucrative to the cinema art. " The show must go on.

It= is quite interesting and funny. Anyway, I tried to use babelfish translation from Altavista to provide this to you, but the result is too bad (see below). If I find some time, I will try to translate it. Regards Franz .. CASH: How does one day in the Hollywood life of Dieter look Meier? Meier: Stereotypedly.

If you are looking for specific things, I would suggest using the boolean search option of Altavista, http://www.altavista.com/ and enter keyword +secondkeyword +thirdkeyword (or as may keywords as is) and you may be surprised just how well this narrows down the search. Also one or two record collecting sites put in label numbers, so the discography comes in very useful. If you look for Yello alone, you'll get 100's of useless matches, but try yello +vicous +games and if that record is for sale on the 'net somewhere, Altavista will find it for you. It'll work with label numbers and model numbers as well. Finally, try http://www.bolton.org.uk/discovery.html as this may just be the sort of thing they'll have in their 'remaindered' stock and it may be pretty cheap. Good luck!
