Now, you may wonder why these 1,000 "Live from Montreux" book sets are reappearing in 2023, sixteen years after their initial limited release. Thierry Amsallem, President of the Claude Nobs Foundation, provides the answer:
«We believed we had exhausted our supply of books. However, the resurgence of interest was sparked by the production and airing of the TV mini-series 'They all came out to Montreux' on Swiss television. This series heavily relied on our book set, and Prince's mention of it further fueled the demand. This led us on an extensive search, resulting in the discovery of hidden stock in a half-forgotten warehouse. We decided to offer these newly found sets at the original inflation-adjusted price, with all net proceeds benefiting the Claude Nobs Foundation. This foundation is dedicated to preserving the unique audio and video archive of the Montreux Jazz Festival from 1967 to 2013, a UNESCO Memory of the World.»
