There will only ever be one revolution - The revolution that the children carry within them.
Revolutions is the sixth overall studio album by Jean Michel Jarre,
first released in 1988. The album spans several genres, including
symphonic industrial, Arabian inspired, light guitar pop and ethnic
electro jazz. The album reached number #2 in the UK charts, Jarre's best
chart position since Oxygène. The Destination Docklands concert in
London coincided with the release of the album.
One of the
definitions of the word "Revolutions" is that it is a change of ideals
and practices, this should always be in the forefront of your mind when
listening to the album because it not only describes the albums musical
story, it describes the story of the musical change made by jmj from
light hits such as oxygene/equinox to revolution.
There are two
versions of the album, each containing a different version of the track
"Revolutions". On the original release, the introduction to the tune is
played on a Turkish flute, whereas the later reissue of the album uses
an Arabian string orchestra for the introduction. This version also has a
different vocal accompaniment, as sung by an Arabian vocalist.[citation
needed] "Revolutions" contains reworked samples of an unpublished
composition by Turkish Kudsi Erguner, which Jarre had acquired from
ethnologist Xavier Bellenger. Erguner took his case to court and won a
modest indemnity. Jarre removed the ney flute part from new releases
of the record and from live performances.
The song "London Kid"
was a collaboration with Hank Marvin. Hank was living in Perth,
Australia at the time and he and Jean Michel composed the song with each
other over the phone.
As noted in the liner notes, the track
"September" is named after and dedicated to South African ANC activist
Dulcie September, who was assassinated in Paris on 29 March 1988.
Jean Michel Jarre – who holds the world crowd pulling record of 3.5 million punters – has applied to hold a massive and mainly free concert at Perth’s Langley Park. oneperth.com.au can reveal the legendary electronic musician from France wants to throw a spectacular sound and light performance by the Perth city foreshore on November 17. If approved by local regulators, ‘Rendez-Vous Perth’ would be free to the public except for 8000 privileged patrons holding gold, VIP and corporate tickets.
The man, and his massive concert plan.
Jarre’s people have indicated a crowd of 80,000 would be likely. The grassy park would be locked down for a month from October 26 to November 26, so massive stages and stands could be erected and dismantled. To help concert-goers see Jarre, six giant screens would rise along the length of Langley Park. City of Perth officials have recommended the concert be approved because it would give Western Australians a “rare opportunity to experience such a visually exciting free concert”. A city committee will debate the bold bid on Tuesday night. Jarre holds several world records for large outdoor concert audiences – the ultimate being when he played for an audience of 3.5 million people to celebrate the 850th birthday of Moscow.

As noted in the liner notes, the track "September" is named after and dedicated to South African ANC activist Dulcie September, who was assassinated in Paris on 29 March 1988.
Dulcie Evonne September (August 20, 1935 -- March 29, 1988) was a South African anti-apartheid political activist who was assassinated in Paris.
Dulcie represented the African National Congress and was assassinated while opening up the ANC offices in Paris between 9.45am and 10.00am. Five shots from a .22-calibre gun with a silencer attached struck her in the head. It is still not known who the assassin was, but among the suspected are Joseph Klue (SADF Sergeant Major), Dirk K. Stoffberg (arms dealer and SA agent) and Heine Hüman who has claimed to be involved in the killing. Whoever he was, it is suggested that he was hired to kill Dulcie by the South African government. In recent years her death has been attributed to the Civil Co-operation Bureau.
Before her assassination, Dulcie had been investigating trafficking of weapons between France and South Africa. Supposedly, this trafficking included nuclear materials.
On the day after her murder, Alfred Nzo commented about Dulcie, "If ever there was a soft target, Dulcie September was one."
Jean Michel Jarre composed a song for his 1988 Revolutions album named "September" and was dedicated to Dulcie. The song featured Mireille Pombo and a female choir from Mali and was performed at his Destination Docklands concert at London's Royal Victoria Dock in 1988.

In 1988 Jarre released his ninth studio album, Revolutions. The album spans several genres, including symphonic industrial, Arabian inspired, light guitar pop and ethnic electro jazz. A two hour concert, titled Destination Docklands, was planned for 24 September 1988 at the Royal Victoria Docks in east London. The location, close to the heart of London, was chosen in part for its desolate environment, but also because Jarre thought the architecture and environment would be ideally suited to his music. Plans to stage the concert began early in 1988, with Jarre meeting local officials and members of the community. The floating stage on which Jarre and his musicians would perform was built on top of four large barges. Large purpose-built display screens were constructed from scaffolding, and one of the buildings to be used in the backdrop was painted white. Local children practised the choral elements of the performance. During the transportation of several large mirror balls commissioned for the event, one came loose and fell onto the roadside. On the same night a satellite (containing radioactive material) was due to re-enter the Earth's atmosphere. The sighting of the mirror ball led to a degree of confusion as some people mistook it for the falling satellite. World War II searchlights were to illuminate the sky and surrounding architecture, along with thousands of coloured fireworks. Newham Borough Council, which ran the docks, expressed their fears about the safety of the event, and delayed their decision on whether to allow the concert to proceed until 12 September before eventually refusing the licence application. The local fire service were also concerned that in the event of a fire, they would be unable to gain access. Work continued on the site, and Jarre's team looked at other locations around the UK, but following improvements to both on and off-site safety Jarre eventually won conditional approval on 28 September to stage two separate performances from 89 October. The spectacular display of fireworks during Destination Docklands Along with thousands in the surrounding streets and parks, 200,000 people watched Jarre perform with guests such as guitarist Hank Marvin. The performances were not without issues; inclement weather had threatened to break the stage from its moorings, and although the original plan was to have Jarre float across the Royal Victoria Dock on the first evening, winds of over 30 knots meant that it was deemed unsafe — the winds were so strong that television cameras were blown over. The audience, which included Diana, Princess of Wales, was on the second evening soaked by rain and wind
Butoh is the collective name for a diverse range of activities, techniques and motivations for dance, performance, or movement inspired by the Ankoku-Butoh movement. It typically involves playful and grotesque imagery, taboo topics, extreme or absurd environments, and is traditionally "performed" in white-body makeup with slow hyper-controlled motion, with or without an audience. But there is no set style, and it may be purely conceptual with no movement at all. Its origins have been attributed to Japanese dance legends Tatsumi Hijikata and Kazuo Ohno. Dancer ; Imre Thormann ( Switzerland ) "Butoh shows at the core, human nature, that the dark dimension, which society does not want to see, from which reverses. When compared with the classical butoh baletem, in the latter it klasic the pursuit of excellence, what cute, wonderful, pleasant, romantic. Butoh and shows what is in kind-where is the pain, suffering, cruelty, which cannot be nowhere. " ...Imre Thormann.
