Yello - One Second (Vinyl LP | DE Original | 1987)

Yello – One Second was released in 1987 and combines Boris Blank's colourful electronics with Dieter Meier's distinctive voice. Between Latin flair, film-score atmosphere and synth-pop, guest voices add contrast: Shirley Bassey sings “The Rhythm Divine”, and Billy MacKenzie can be heard on “Moon On Ice”. Add to that “La Habanera” and “Goldrush”.

On offer is the 1987 German original pressing on Mercury (830 956-1).
