JEAN MICHEL JARRE: 'AERO' - NEW ALBUM UPDATE

Jean Michel Jarre 'AERO' Album Cover

AUGUST 31ST: Today, Jean Michel Jarre's Management confirmed to JARRE UK, that the First Track of Jean Michel Jarre's forthcoming NEW 'AERO' Album, entitled 'AERO OPENING', is indeed a 16 Seconds Track.

JARRE UK queried the Running Time of this Track, after it was discovered that the Running Time of the Tracklisting on Warner Music Germany's Warner Classics & Jazz Web-Site (www.warnerclassics.de), only totalled 72 Minutes & 26 Seconds, despite the Running Time of Jean Michel Jarre's forthcoming NEW 'AERO' Album being listed as 73 Minutes & 42 Seconds.

Jean Michel Jarre's Management confirmed that the discrepancy in the Running Time of Jean Michel Jarre's forthcoming NEW 'AERO' Album, was probably due to a 1 Minute & 19 Seconds Silence between Tracks 14 & 15, between 'CHRONOLOGY 6' and the Hidden Bonus Track 'RENDEZ-VOUS 4'.

For further information about Jean Michel Jarre's forthcoming 'AERO' Album, please visit Jean Michel Jarre's Official Web-Site (www.jarre.net).

JARRE UK Would Like To Thank Aero Productions For This Information.
