Emeralds (2) – Does It Look Like I'm Here?

No gatefold.
Very slight warp on both discs, but not a big issue.
Clean pressing (surprising for Ghostly).

The remaster sounds good but is inferior to the original: quieter, less vibrant and less dynamic. Not a bad version though, buy with confidence if you can’t find or afford the Mego version (which is still available on Discogs).

Excellent pressing & stunning work!!! Beautiful music from emeralds in most easy album ( for me ) for listening. Synths - guitars with new age atmosphere:)

The first copy I tried came with a very significant warp on disc 2, making it literally unplayable. The second copy came with a very slight warp on disc 1, although it does not affect playback in the slightest. The sound, however, is stellar, massive, dynamic, enveloping, and truly amazing. So take from that what you will

Disc 1 came with a pretty significant warp. doesn't affect playback but still pretty nasty looking. cool synth sounds tho.

The ectoplasm is a solid wobbly solid piece of black in the middle, instead of looking swirly and smoky on the website. Still an incredible record

wanted a vinyl copy of this since it first came out and i was stoked to see it get a reissue. it's not a gatefold, but this is great. really massive sound. the ectoplasm green vinyl is cool too.

Re-release vinyl sounds great! And the writeup inside is really beautiful. Great pressing.

As of February 20, 2013, Emeralds' Steve Hauschildt is selling copies of the first pressing for $30.00 + shipping. Not sure how long they'll last, but his online store is here: http://stevehauschildt.bigcartel.com/

I have both the first and second press of this album and there's also a difference between the gatefold jackets, one is printed on glossy and the other is on non-glossy.
