Jarre has (as yet) no control over his pre-Aero concert recordings, although he has the power to veto any release he has issue with. FDM tried to licence releases of CiC, Houston and La Defense, but JMJ didn't want them to release bare bones, sub-par product (read: didn't want FDM to release ANY product).docklands88 wrote: that's what I am trying to say, if Jean Michel really wanted the concerts to be released they would. But he does not, whether due to money or artistic dissatisfaction.
Exactly what's going on now with the new album.Equinoxe wrote:(...) the excitement was there because it was long periods of time between projects that when they did happen it was such a major event for me that is was quite special, (...)

Still.... He quitted barrel organ. He quitted circular keyboards... He quitted DJ set... He quitted tubular bells... He quitted Dynacord guitar... He quitted 5.1. concerts... He quitted VJaing... He quitted Doepfer Ribbon... He quitted his Giant Pads...Pat Gleeson wrote:I agree as usual with most of what you say Glenn.

Yes, it`s creativity in other ways. Perhaps it´s not easy to concentrate on only one thing today. We don`t live in the 80`s or 90`s. Now the world is fast-paced and he needs to work much on more things.GlennFolkvord wrote: ......To me it is very clear that Jarre has not lost his creativity - doing a megaconcert at some skyskrapers supported by a new album that sounds like Equinoxe every two years, that isnt creativity, that is repeating a successful formula. Doing a stadium tour, then an arena tour, then a concert hall tour, then a couple of jazz albums, then the urban dancey T&T album, working with 3D and surround, designing hifi systems, taking on "small" megaconcerts (still big enough to outdo most artists) to be able to work in new places.... all this means JMJ is getting new ideas, and taking on new challenges. THAT is creativity - creativity is NOT making nice tunes with analogue synths than sounds like Oxygene, again. .....
This is an overstatement : For how long haven't these French television channel programmed any concert from any major artist at all ?keran wrote:(...) When he did something special, TVs followed him all day long, with concerts, backstages, rehearsals... Interviews, magazine covers... Big national TVs like France 2 or TF1 fighted to show his concerts and moved all their programms to follow the show. (...)
