Musique pour Supermarché (partially lost Jean-Michel Jarre album; 1983): Difference between revisions
(Removed needing work tag. Organized external links and references and added content. Also changed the video from 3 tracks to the whole broadcast on youtube. I feel this should be as "Found" since the whole album is available, albeit in poor quality.) |

Album art.
Status: Partially Lost
In 1983, an electronic musician named Jean-Michel Jarre was asked to compose some music for an art exhibition based on supermarkets. He agreed and created Music for Supermarkets in 1983. Only one copy of the album was made, which was auctioned after the art exhibition had ended. To make sure that no other copies of the album would be made the master tapes and plates were burned in front of the attendees. The reason behind this was that Jarre thought that music is art, and like paintings, it should be treated as such. [1]
The current owner and their location are both unknown as of the time of writing this.
Bootleg Recordings
Before the auction, however, Jarre decided to broadcast the entire album on Radio Luxembourg, incidentally allowing for the creation of bootlegs. However, the station played in only broadcasted via AM, meaning that any recorded audio was in very low quality.
Tracks Used in Later Albums
The following tracks were recycled in later albums:
Music for Supermarkets, Pt. 5 and Music for Supermarkets, Pt. 7 became Blah Blah Café and Diva, respectively, and were used on Zoolook in 1984.
Music for Supermarkets, Pt. 3 became Cinquième Rendez-Vous/Fifth Rendez-Vous from the album Rendez-Vous in 1986.
Music for Supermarkets, Pt. 1 was used in the Explorations and Early Works segment of Planet Jarre: 50 Years of Music under the name Music for Supermarkets (Demo Excerpt).
