I
the album. Good memories from the early part of the eighties.
Which reminds me, a good opportunity to remind you of my sister's CD cover (again
):
The taste of Magnetic Fields.

You don't remind me. I hear this at the first time !

I wouldn't mind hearing the original traditional Chinese melody of MF5, out of curiosity. Can anyone help, please?

Someone (sorry I don't remember who) in here once told about a visit at a Chinese restaurant where they played it.
I used to have it lying around... nice relaxing with vocal added

That sounds mighty interesting.
Maybe, I will get lucky if I have dinner at some Chinese restaurants.
Thanxs for the info, Jakob.

Thanxs a lot, dear Jakob.

Even though it's a traditional song, and the author is unknown, it's should have been mentioned. It's merely a cover version by Jarre.

The only thing controversial about the MF album is the dodgy reproductive cover from the 1997 re-issue. You know the one, with all those lines.

That's just due to the resizing from the LP cover I guess - not carefully done.

Well, it's really up to him.
Having heard the traditional song, I much prefer JMJ's version.

Maybe the chinese song is a cover of the JMJ track?

That's a very good point you have there, Coen.
