Yeah, sure was - I was there

I think that even Jarre doesn't remember exactly what was played during the exhibition. Has anyone ever actually asked him that? Jarre has said in quite a few interviews that the album was recorded especially for the exhibition. He was in the middle of preparing for the Zoolook album, which explain...

The tape was no doubt returned to JMJ / Dreyfus once the exhibition ended, as per contract. A similar thing happened during the Concert D'Images exhibition in 1989, when the full 75 minute version of Waiting For Cousteau was played.

It's really a shame that the record seems lost to time. Was there no demand that all sales after the auction needed to be communicated to Dreyfus? The record was never expected to gain a commercial release. The auction was to raise funds for the artists whose work was soundtracked by the album play...

Anyway, it says there was a "safety copy" kept that was never used... Is this common knowledge? What was destroyed at the Music For Supermarkets auction has been interpreted in a few different ways. The fact is the master plates (or "mother record" as JMJ called it) used to pres...

Interesting - what AI separating program was it I wonder ?

To my knowledge there is only the stereo and binaural version for purchase. Some streaming services (like Tidal or Apple Music) offer listening in Dolby Atmos format. Absolutely correct. The stereo and binaural versions are the only physical release. (The binaural is a download with either the viny...

Great photos, thanks From what I've seen, the labels aren't replicas of the originals ?

I suspect the poster is the booklet, or at least has all the things which are in the booklet too. As far as I know, the poster is an addition the the exact replicas of the original vinyl inner sleeves. The CD set, whilst missing the poster has a booklet with new sleevenotes. Perhaps as you say Dr. ...

Bootleggers claim all sorts of things. Since they are are unofficial bootlegs without provenance, you have no guarantee what's in them, or if they are as described.

Well what a load of utter sh*t this album is. If Jarre is going to keep making non-music like this and Amazonia then he should just retire. Wow. Let me get this straight. JMJ should retire because he releases an an album YOU don't like? That is spectacularly arrogant. JMJ announces an album based o...
