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. Their 1981 debut is the first of six albums newly remastered and expanded. 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 familiar in part because of Kraftwerk. Rare is the album wherein post-punk spunk, samba, polka, soundtracks and marching bands collide: Solid Pleasure combines them with a mixture of presumptuous eccentricity and sophisticated camp. Of the others, Flag has the Race, their only major UK hit. Shame on us.
