Yello & Shirley Bassey - Rhythm Divine

Review by Matt Nicholas

Rhythm Divine is a collaborative album by Swiss electronic music duo Yello and legendary British singer Shirley Bassey. The album, released in 1987, is a unique blend of Bassey's powerful vocals and Yello's innovative electronic beats.

The opening track, "The Rhythm Divine," sets the tone for the album with its pulsating synth rhythms and Bassey's soaring vocals. The album's standout track, "The Rhythm Divine," is a hauntingly beautiful ballad that showcases Bassey's incredible vocal range and Yello's masterful production skills.

Other highlights include "Goldrush," a funky dance track with a catchy chorus, and "Call It Love," a mid-tempo song with a memorable melody. The album also features a cover of the classic song "Lost Again," which Yello and Bassey infuse with their own unique energy and style.

Summary by Matt Nicholas

Rhythm Divine is a bold and adventurous album that successfully blends two very different musical styles. Yello's electronic beats and Bassey's powerful vocals complement each other perfectly, resulting in a truly unforgettable listening experience.
