Anyone here love these two cover versions - The Shadows covered Equinoxe 5 for their 'Change Of Address' album and Hank covered Oxygene 4.

Having been brought up on their music (my father was a guitarist and idolised Hank), I was impressed with these covers. Hank breathed new life into Oxygene and it sounds really good on the guitar.

Jarre obviously liked them, as he invited Hank to play guitar on London Kid.

I've seen a few video's of The Shadows version of Equinoxe 5 on youtube. I'll try to find the links for them.

EDIT: I 've found two videos. Here you go

I especially like Hanks' version of Oxygene 4. Equinoxe 5 sounded a bit cheap to me.

I have a CD with that track on, and some other classic synth tracks covered as well, for sale. Let me know if you're interested.
