I, too, am a huge YMO fan and have their catalog on CD. But I always seem to forget about them! Every now & then I'll pull them out of my library and listen to them for a couple weeks non-stop. I have The Overseas Collection and it's pretty good place to start if you're a beginner who's interested. It is, however, a tough one to come across since it is OOP. Is anyone familiar with the Junior Vasquez mixes that were put out a few years ago? I had both, but am down to one since both sounded practically identical. I find that if I bring YMO up in a conversation about music I either get a "Who?" or a "They're my all-time favorite!" It's usually never in bewteen.

Once you've heard enough of YMO, how can they not be a favorite? The only people who don't like YMO are people who haven't heard YMO. Okay, I know that sounds retarded, but you (hopefully) get my point.
