=ABOUT=
This is a recorded interview session with both of the members of Yello conducted by Steve Blame (best known as a host on MTV at the time) in promotion of their 1994 album, Zebra. The first two portions are individual interviews with Dieter Meier and Boris Blank respectively. The final segment, "Dieter Meier on Zebra", features Dieter reading his own conceptual backstories for each song on the album. This was released on CD solely as a promotional item and has since become a valuable collector's find.
