In 1994, Jean Michel Jarre performed a very special performance at Hong Kong’s brand new Olympic Stadium as part of the stadium’s opening ceremonies. This ‘live’ album is a representation of this special performance. Originally released on 2 CDs in France ONLY, the 1997 remastered edition (and subsequent releases) is now only available on a single CD internationally, with the original 2-CD edition now deleted and being a rare 
collector’s item.

The Hong Kong ‘live’ album represents quite an interesting item - especially in the fact that the majority of the album release is not even taken from the Hong Kong concert! This album is, more-or-less, a “Best of Europe In Concert” due to the majority of the tracks being taken from the European Tour Jarre performed during 1993, around most of Europe’s major cities. The only really true Hong Kong track on this album is Fishing Junks at Sunset, but even this was recorded from the rehearsals and not the actual live performance itself.

Also, due to a lack of CD space it would seem, Rendez-vous 2 is also missing from this album. which was actually performed at the concert.
