I was discussing this with La Cage on MSN and we thought the Rendez-Vous 4 single with Houston skyline might be the rarest. But it can also be the Chronologie 4 single for that matter. What do you think?

Yes, it could also be Chronologie 4 (7" and 12"), and maybe Magnetic Fields 4 (12") from Spain? Not sure if that's rare or not.

Q: What's the rarest 7"?
A: Chronologie 4 12"

Isn't the MF5 Last Rumba 7" very rare?
How about Oxygene 4/Eldorado 7"?

I think the rarest 7" Vinyl Single is Chronologie 6 with Chronologie 7 on the B-Side. I only know one Dutch Fan who owns it. It is even not listed on jarre.ch

The rarest 12" Vinly Maxi might be Oxygene in the Ghetto, or Rendez Vous II Houston. Has anybody information if Oxygene in Moscow was released on Vinyl? It is listed on jarre.ch but without scans. So this is not a serious proof...

Btw, why isn´t jarre.ch updated anymore?

There's no such thing as a Chronologie 6 vinyl single. Can't be. The last 7" released was Chronologie 4 and that was only for jukeboxes.

I always thought the same untill I saw the single. Believe me, it exists! I will ask my friend to scan it and then I will post it here.

I think the webmaster lost some interest due to the fact that there's very little to collect nowadays and that most of the JMJ stuff out there is already on the website.
However, I think this Chronologie 6/7 7" you mention is definitely worth an update.

As for Oxygene in Moscow 12", wasn't it once on eBay without any picture?

I'd love to see scans of the Chronologie 6/7 single. Certainly worth investigating whether it's genuine or a bootleg.

is it for sale?

No, otherwise I have bought it immediately..

of course

But is it real? I don't see a matrix number in the run out groove area..

Never seen it before, and I can't find any information about it

Didn't read about 7", only about single. Sorry, GeeJee, if I was an idiot. But The Last Rumba and Oxygene 4/Eldorado are not rare at all. They're always on sites like ebay, cdandlp, gemm, etc. So... to you too.
