Welcome to our first foray into the wonderful world of `Euro Instrumental Electronic Music and we picked an absolute monster to kick things off Jean Michel Jarres ground-breaking Oxygene. Released in mid 1977, Oxygene featured the sort of simple multiple layered synth sound which caught the world by storm. Reaching a phenomenal No.2 in the U.K., and a respectable No.78 (good for an instrumental album) in the U.S.A., Oxygene found a huge audience around the world. This consequently propelled Jean Michel Jarre into the sort of stratospheric superstar status that eventually resulted in him being able to sell a one-off piece of music for £10,000 to a single punter in 1983, play to a million people in Houston, Texas in 1986 and three million people in Docklands Arena, London in 1989! Hey, dont blame us for simply MIRRORING public taste, OK? Oh yeah, great cover with a sort of skeleton head emerging from the bowels of the earth. Just the sort of thing you should be displaying on your art-deco coffee table!
Selections: Oxygene (Part 1), Oxygene (Part 2), Oxygene (Part 3), Oxygene (Part 4), Oxygene (Part 5), Oxygene (Part 6).
