Finally got the TdF '03 CD single from a Virgin Megastore!
So far I like what I hear. Good sounds. No copy protected label on my CD,
only a "Le Tour de France, 1903 * 2003 centenaire du Tour de France" sticker
on it. So much for my review, what I'd really like to share with all of you,
specially since I've been reading quite a bit of a heated debate about
streaming, downloading and the likes, is the following note the US, ASW
52689 / 72435 52689 2 1 inner sleeve has:
"Thank you for buying this music and for supporting the artists,
songwriters, musicians and others who've created it and made it possible.

don't use internet services that promote the illegal distribution of

same effect as stealing a disc from a store without paying for it.
Applicable laws provide sever civil and criminal penalties for the
unauthorized reproduction, distribution and digital transmission of
copyrighted sound recordings.

Enough said. I've paid $7.99 plus tax for my legal CD.
I encourage the rest of you to do the same, whatever the cost in your
country might be.
Thanks,

I remember reading in the Pascal Bussy Book, that Ralf (and Maxime Schmitt)
already suggested in the early 1980s to record a record solely dedicated to
Tour de France, but that the other members objected. Anyway, maybe some of
these compositions date back to this period, or maybe not.
Also it looks like they have reacquainted themselves with old collaborators
such as Maxime Schmitt (who co-wrote the lyrics on the new release) and Emil
Schult, who was present at some of their latest concerts.
