The Friends of Mr Cairo is the second album by Jon and Vangelis, released in 1981. There are two editions of the album, with different sleeves. Both were released in 1981 within a few weeks of each other. The title track, "The Friends of Mr Cairo", peaked at No. 1 on the Canadian singles chart in late 1981, though the track was not a hit elsewhere. The second edition of the album includes the single "I'll Find My Way Home", which according to Anderson was added in response to poor initial sales of the album, and which stayed in the Swiss charts for 14 weeks and peaked at No. 1 on 7 March 1982. It also peaked at No. 6 in the UK. The album was #2 in Canada for 3 weeks, and was #15 in the Best of 1981. "State of Independence" was later a hit single for Donna Summer, and a decade later for Moo

  • The Friends of Mr. Cairo est le deuxième album studio du duo Jon and Vangelis, composé du chanteur britannique Jon Anderson et du claviériste grec Vangelis, sorti en 1981. Sorti à peu près en même temps que la bande originale des Chariots de feu de Vangelis, ce deuxième album de Jon and Vangelis est bien plus cohérent que le premier et présente des morceaux plus élaborés, tels que The Mayflower et The Friends of Mr. Cairo qui semblent « scénarisés » et présentent des passages avec narration ou dialogues.

  • The Friends of Mr. Cairo is het tweede muziekalbum van de combinatie Jon & Vangelis. Jon Anderson en Vangelis zagen hun eerste samenwerking Short Stories wellicht tot hun eigen verbazing zeer goed verkopen. De soloalbums van de heren apart hadden tot dan toe matig succes, maar Short Stories belandde bijvoorbeeld in Nederland op nummer 1 in de albumlijst. Het album verscheen al vroeg nadat de compact disc zijn intrede had gedaan op dat medium; het heeft een voor Polydor-cd (toen) uiterst laag bestelnummer 800021-2 (2 is aanduiding cd); men begon bij 800000 (elpeecode 2302127). Het album is opgenomen in Parijs, Davout Studio en Londen, van Vangelis zelf. (nl)
