Filler tracks?

We all know how much we want Jarre's concerts released with no tracks left out. Especially on the case of certain concerts (like Docklands) where the scissors have been used perhaps too actively.
However, there must be some tracks that have been totally superfluous even during the concerts themselves.
I think Equinoxe 2 on Rendez-Vous Houston is pretty much like that. The mood starts to build up but when it reaches Equinoxe 2, everything seems to die down and that kinda lets the mood down a bit...
What do you think?

you're right!
For example I miss the video pf ethnicolor from docklands (I have the radio recording of this song)

Well, to reply to the part of tracks being superfluous during concerts, the Houston concert may be the best example of this, with tracks like Oxygene 1 and Equinoxe 2... I can't actually think of any other track during a concert, or maybe it would be Chronologie 7 which was played during some EIC concerts

Also, in my opinion 'Band in the Rain' is probably the ultimate filler track and I wouldn't mind at all seeing it go

Indeed - it was fun for a few times, but now I think it's ready to be left out. Maybe he should try a few of those other unplugged songs (MF5, Eq3)

He did also have Equinoxe 3 and The Last Rumba on it, and not to forget Choppin' Memories.
