So mister Andro, you are saying that it's the same with 'Cities in concert', 'Jarre Live' and 'Hong Kong'?? :P
This leads back to the question about why there is a recording made by a spectator from the CHina concert 2004, where you can hear a note from the synthex laser harpe sound in FJAS. It's not on the official releases after all, but that was also pretty much edited.

Perhaps that was added in the studio by JMJ to make it sound live. :P

I believe he hired the entire country to look happy for him, he said it himself, tickets were very, very, very cheap in those days. :punch: :p:

Oh boy, you have just shattered by illusions that they were really his fans and were so overjoyed in seeing/listening to something that had never happened in China. :p: :punch:

Ya, thirded.

The first 3 tracks are pure kool. Equinoxe 4 CiC is a marvel, managing to combine the spacyness of the Oxygene album and the electronic-ness of Equinoxe into a tour-de-force of a track.
Still my top EM track of all time.

Perhaps Jarre never really went to China, it was all just filmed in a studio in Paris. A bit like the US never went to the moon? :punch: :p:

Yeah those pics of JMJ and Charlotte in front of the forbidden city were fake, even the little boy who started crying during that photosession... FAKE and simply a bunch of characters in a studio using the same backgroundpicture technic as in old car-scenes :wink:

Are you saying Industrial Light+Magic are involved?

Then again I would put anything past George Lucas.... :twisted: :p: <notice the 4 full stops at the end>
