Does anyone here have a copy of the Guinness Book of Records, no matter how old (as long as its after 1979), if they do would they mind seeing what entry there is for the concert with the largest audience attendance? I'm after Jean Michel Jarre 'records'.

To save time, if you can do this for me, I need the year of the book, the page number, the publisher, and the isbn.

In 1986, NASA and the city of Houston invited Jarre to perform a concert to celebrate NASA's 25th anniversary and the city of Houston's 150th anniversary, Rendez-Vous Houston.

The Houston concert entered the Guinness Book of Records for the audience of over 1.5 million.

In 1988, Jarre Performed in London Docklands, in a concert entitled Destination Docklands.

On 14 July 1990 Jean Michel Jarre broke his own record in the Guinness Book of Records with a concert in La Defense, Paris where 2.5 million people attended, Paris La Defense: A City in Concert.

On 6 September 1997, Jarre played in Moscow to celebrate the 850th anniversary of the city. The Moscow State University was used as the backdrop for a spectacular display of image projections, skytrackers and fireworks, with an audience of 3.5 million, Jarre's fourth record for the biggest concert audience ever.

I know its is not a direct quote from Guiness Book of Records.
