Both albums were a big part of my introduction to music as a teenager.
Always liked Equinox a little more though. Magnetic Fields is ok as well.
Lost interest in JMJ from Zoolook onwards when i discovered Tangerine
Dream via Underwater Sunlight.

Dragon Phoenix: Oxygene four starts, Equinoxe three.

Me: I think both are 5 stars but Equinoxe is my absolute favorite.

Oxygene: 0 stars

Equinoxe: 0 stars

Catastrophic synthetic music...just awful and terribly commercial. The worst exemple in the genre with Vangelis, TD (since the last decade)

"Oxygene" set the pace and "Equinox" gave it a solid trend - that same trend became gradually enriched by "Magnetic Fields "and the amazing "Concerts in China", the most intensely prog-related Jarre's recording ever.

All the subsequent albums are just a copy of Oxygene!!!

JM Jarre is the prog version of Status Quo........Dead

His is not progressive music just synth pop dressed up to be something it aint.He's a showman,pure and very simple.
