NOTES: Telex had remixed "Go Go Dancer" on Expo 2001a year earlier. Is Releasewas only available for four months, according to a Telex fan site.
The title mystifies me, but a year earlier Yellow Magic Orchestra had released a single "Pocketful of Rainbows," which had a cover graphic that read "Humor Is a Release." Could this be a YMO reference--if so, why?
