Witty and weird electronica .......2006-05-17

Their second and a more mature album, great album cover too, but pity they didn`t use the funny back cover from the original on this remaster release.
They follow much the same imaginative style as their debut, but this time maybe even more like a motion picture, very visual indeed.
Just listen to the wonderful and dramatic `She`s Got A Gun` and be in the middle of a French black and white movie from the 50`s...
Atmospheric, full of witty lyrics and weird electronics, this is very innovative and playful tunes from the Swiss guys who brought us a number of wonderful albums.
This is one of their truly highlights before they eventually became too commercial for my taste.
Buy this one and Solid Pleasure and not to forget - You Gotta Say Yes To Another Excess, which follow much in the same vein.

Claro Que Si---Maybe not.......2006-05-04

I am a very big Yello fan, so my recommendation in no way means I don't like the songs on this album. However, this is the re-mastered version, and I already own the original cd. The new songs on the cd are basically the same as the versions on the Yello Cd "1985-The New Mix in One Go." If you already have the original and the 1985 cd, it's not really worth getting this one.

A Must-Buy!.......2005-10-25

The San Francisco based Ralph Records released Yello's first two albums, Solid Pleasure (1980) and Claro Que Si (1981), before being absorbed/bought out/whatever by Mercury in 1982/83. After that, I feel Yello was being influenced by the company's marketing department to come up with dance-track style music. Claro Que Si is a terrific album that represents their best work with the "smaller client friendly" Ralph Records. Pinball Cha Cha, The Evening's Young, and Daily Disco are among the most commericially successful songs, although my favorites are She's Got A Gun and Ballet Mecanique. The album design (courtesy Jim Cherry) is a real eye-catcher, and I'm happy to say that Claro Que Si remains as one of my all-time favorite Yello albums.

Music Concrete That Swings.......2004-08-17

This is Yello at its best, before they mutated into a dance band. When they still made each track a multi-layered mini-movie. Psychedelic, mind bending, never predictable, it's a trip. Awesome cover design, if I say so myself.

Small treasure for those who love Solid Pleasure.......2000-07-17

The second of the two Ralph albums is more mild than Solid-P but just as far out there. The quality of the recording isn't as good as the others but you will find their most creative moments here.

Their best album. Possibly........1999-11-26

The 2nd album from this Swiss outfit contains some of their best material...."Pinball Cha Cha," "The Evening's Young," just to name two....but, for some reason, is the only one of their early albums that is out of print in the U.S. Yello never received much of a following in the states (with the exception of the classic single "Oh Yeah," which was used heavily in a couple of films and in about 50,000 TV commercials) but their influence on modern electronic music is undeniable. This CD is a must for any electronic music fan....if you're lucky enough to find it in a used bin somewhere, pick it up. If not, the import is definitely worth the extra bucks.

Try it, buy it!.......1999-06-23

In this album Yello goes back to the roots. The style of the album is quite minimalistic (these are really "songs", not "tunes"), but I find it fascinating. Some of my all-time-favourite electronic music is on this record. Just listen to "She's got a gun" and "Pinball Cha Cha"! By the way, there is a tremendous remix of "She's got a gun" on "Eccentrix".
