OK. Normally I'd just ignore reading something like this as just a ranting of an uneducated fool, but I've got to get this clarified.
Quoted from the following link:

"Carlos Peron was the founder of globally renowned cult act Yello... initiator of the world's first ever video clip, The Evening's Young ... You Gotta Say Yes To Another Excess, which was released as the world's first ever Compact Disc in 1983, ... Many music critics agree that Yello lost their raw edge with the departure of Peron."
Does any of that sound completely wrong to any of you?-----=====<<<<<>>>>>=====-----
The world's first compact disc ? In the UK I thought it was something from Dire Straits as an album, first cd single was supposed to be World Party and ship of fools, but I could be wrong on both of those. I do however think that it could have been one of the first albums to use digital recording / mastering. This may apply if the disc was a DAD type (opposed to ADD or DDD). Carlos Peron the founder of Yello? Founding member maybe, but the rest for discussion or clarification. We need Jonas' book! The Raw edge of Yello lost when Carlos left? Well this I do agree with. The albums with Carlos invovled do have parental advisory, and are less about the boy-meets- girl and surrounding scenarios, and other esoteric subjects. I don't need to name tracks from those albums do I? OK I know I am generalising on the later albums, but a few tracks from those early albums are very raw. Or less refined. With respect to 'many music critics' lets have their names! -- Regards, Nic.
