BlahBlahCafe - Jean-Michel Jarre forum

Hello, I'm new in this forum. I'm fan since 1979 just because I saw La concorde. I wrote some articles in press before fanzine and web pages (juke box magazine and globe-trotter). I hope to write a book if my first book is published (maybe in july it's about Balavoine).
I have a site http://alnr.chez.tiscali.fr/toutjarre in french, english and spanish. I wrote an fanzine, globe-trotter (31 issues) and at this time I offered (no money) rarities of Jarre on audio and video. So the tape which you spoke about I copyed it many many times but it's me who have the original. The problem is a silence during 2 minutes (oxygene 5) and some pictures jumps.
Now I have a dvd recorder but I can't do the vhs better.

Nice to meet you Welcome!

hello hiram and welcome to this forum......

just some words about the sharing stuff: I also find it hard to believe that people ask you to not spread stuff they themselves share. BUT! I can completely accept that in case this happens, someone is sticking to the promise he / she gave. It's not about the material to be shared or not, it's about keeping a promise. When I married my wife some 7 years ago, I "promised" not to be after other women and I keep that promise, and am not breaking it because so many other people do it differently....

Welcome here!
Can you maybe share some of the articles you wrote about the concert?

It's not possible to edit all than I wrote in my fanzine globe-trotter (300 pages) but if you are patient you will read my book

Is your book release in english too ?

my book isn't released, it will be in one year but in french (it's not a problem I think to traduce it with a little time if you want it)

Now he is in this forum, i have to thanks Thierry (hiram). He provided the video of the concert that i uploaded to Nico's database.

Merci Michael.

I dowloaded 'new' version of concorde, And all i want to say is - without offence but i thought you (Michael or Hiram33?) will make the dvd version, instead you again encoded file by xvid with a bigger resolution and there's compression effect is still very noticeable.

I know theres kind a bad source and crashed vhs but why do you making it worse by such a strong compression? And sound compression 128 kbit isn't good either... Just i prefer original quality even if it's a very poor source.

Again, I don't wanna offend you and i know it is very rare material and i suppose to be happy but i was hoping you'll do the best you can, from that vhs.

hey AERO, you have the link to download this source of la concorde?
for years i try to find a dvd edit of the studio version!

thank's

I also notice one thing. As we all have seen tv version of la concorde, we know there're oxygene 5 track playing during this kind of images.



But if we'll watch "making the steamroller fly" there're the same images showing during Equinoxe 5.




How comes it? Which version is right?

I found one unknown version here http://www.dvds2trade.co.uk/rock.htm

JEAN MICHEL JARRE - Place de la concorde 1979 (45 Mins)

Enrique_Grove isn't it your site? Because the name in that mail is the same.
Anyway I sent a message to author. Maybe it's something new Although it's a little bit weird because the official version is 30 min long and the tv version is 54 min long.

Does anyone interested in this concert at all ?

Looks like the topic is dead.

, the topic is not dead and it is an interesting read. I am sure fans are reading it but they might not know the answers to your questions.
