Saw the advert on ITV1 and it lasted about no less than 30 seconds. It showed clips from the concerts, Live in Beijing and Oxygene at the Théâtre Marigny. :mrgreen:

I did not record it because I did not think I would be lucky enough to see it! :(

8) :wow:, an advert with Jean Michel on UK television. :P

I'm not really expecting for that free CD to be available here as well, but I guess without this god-ass cold at least I could have been able to check it out. Especially since I remember foreign newspapers getting sold really fast around here :|

Anyway, here are some scans of the 'free' cd

???

composed by jean-michel jarre. published by jean-michel jarre & francis dreyfus music

???

I wonder that Francis Dreyfus is mentioned on this release. He is not mentioned on the regular releases (CD, CD+2D-DVD, CD+2D/3D-DVD)

Is this the original recording from the seventies or the "new" remaster?

Hi All,

Sorry I haven't been around for a while... work got busy again!

La Cage has just emailed me to inform me that he still hasn't received his Oxygene CD yet. I sent them all out in the same week and the last ones I sent were Nico's. I know Nico has received his and I think La Cage's is the only one outstanding (Moviemaker has received his so it can't be an 'international' reason). La Cage tells me he has sent a package in exchange but I have not received this either.

Has anyone else had any difficulties? Is anyone else still waiting for their CD?

Cheers for your help.

Carl

Hi, Carl

I received the package on the following day! (Feb.23). I emailed you immediately, but I think you still haven't checked your emails. Anyway, thank you VERY MUCH. Oh, and I'll ask at the post office about the package I sent, but don't worry because it's registered and I keep the receipt :wink:

Thanks, again.

La Cage.
