Notes

This was originally released as Jerusalem.

Dopesmoker is an alternate version of Jerusalem that we felt our fans might enjoy. This early version, as yet unheard, contains a more dynamic recording and a heavier mix. So get high, crank it up and listen with open ears and mind.

Released in Gatefold format

        I’m a little lost for words right now. I own my fair share of super low, droned out records that sound like there’s a full grown elephant stomping in the room but this is…. Unique. I really can’t put it into words. The riffs sound ancient and this particular pressing is that of a relic that can’t be replicated.

        Though expensive and hard to find, it’s worth it to have this tome in your arsenal of stoner worship. Doesn’t matter where you are, this will transport you to Jerusalem after side A is over, and after that, you will be smoking marijuana with the son of god. God bless sleep.

          I think the cover art on this one is much cooler than the Southern Lord reissue

            How does this sound? Is it worth the $100 or so.

              Does anyone know if this was recorded analog? AAA all the way through?

                  Paid $1 for this at a garage sale a few years ago. Talk about a nice surprise.

                      pressing info can be found in this image they posted on their (SL) Facebook: https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn1/546738_331688970234412_49822723_n.jpg. it mentions that only 2000 copies received the holographic cover but doesn't have an exact breakdown as to what color got what.

                      before SL took the info off the site, i could have sworn they mentioned/or made it seem, that 1500 copies on green had the holographic cover while only 500 copies on black had it, which influenced me to purchase the black vinyl and not the green.
