Jean-Michel Jarre – Music for Supermarkets

In 1983, Parisian artists collaborated to create an exhibition that had supermarkets as a theme. Jean-Michel Jarre, the experimental electronic composer, was invited to join the project, where he produced a single record called ‘Music for Supermarkets.’ This was his work of art, one which was bought at the time of the exhibition for $14,000, which becomes $33,500 with inflation today. The master plates were trashed by Jarre, so there is no doubt that this is the sole copy.
