I hope you all remember that he thought about us while he makes new music. I wonder if he thought about us a bit when he made T&T.

T&T ? That was too fast, was made in a night, in some hours. Remember..."Fresh News", so he watched news after the dinner....then "Beautiful Agony" performed with Anne...then "Melancholic Rodeo" with Anne aswell ...so, then, still late night, he sat in the studio and completted Teo&Tea.
Voilá.

Like I have told earlier, I wished for that kind of album on old Jarre.net forum many years ago, and he filled my wish, so I'm happy, that he really did that.

(it is really a shame that he now regrets that he composed T&T, and no songs will be performed, when in concert )

ps. Teo&tea, Ok, do it fast and Vintage would nicely fit to the setlist of the concert to give nice balance for the old and the new.

Maybe, he thought of us in between sessions.

I agree about that he regrets it. I wonder what else he regrets.

I still wonder why Jarre regrads having made Téo & Téa, although it may be his worst work, it's still better then most music that's being made the last couple of years. But I'm still thinking that music should never be considerd a mistake, there is always someone who can enjoy it and it still has more then enough tracks that are amazing

It is removed from his more regarded "classic" material. He did say at the time it was something he wanted to get of his chest, so to speak.

He's done it, got it out of the way and moved on by the looks of things if his latest comment is anything to go by.

Lastly he often regrets not to have made more film music: he refused Midnight Express, American Gigolo, and Cat People; and he also ironises that these refusals helped Giorgio Moroder's career!

Thinking down that line... Metamorphoses with David Bowie would have been very interesting..

He should have starred in American Gigolo and the film be renamed French Gigolo.

Ok, Do It Fast? Do it "slower" this time.

OK, Dont bother to do it fast. . . . I have an headache.

If Teo & Tea was a let down what was sessions. Teo & Tea has a few half decent tracks the last time I listened to sessions I turned it off. I know it was not a main stream release but at a time when money was tight I found it hard not to be upset. I will buy anything Jarre does but if he does anything like that again I will be very annoyed. There is 1 good track on sessions that's about it. OK rant over thank you.

Sessions is actually pretty great. Works very well on a hot summer day

I don't mind Sessions 2k that much. May 1 is an interesting track.
The rest is, well...overall. Relaxing music pure and simple.
