Jamiroquai – Emergency On Planet Earth

Apart from the running times as mentioned by others, it's not a bad reissue sound wise, good balance of sound, clear and not too much bass on this one, apart from the end Too Young Too Die for some reason. If you have one of those special amps that go up to 11, you know one more than 10, turn it up. Album artwork on this is very cool as well.

has anyone actually ripped this onto youtube? i cant find one from this version

This is a b.s. reissue simply because the running time of the tracks is identical to those on the CD, and is therefore not remastered from the original vinyl master tapes:

When You Gonna Learn is 6'22 on the original album - 3'47 on this reissue
Too Young To Die is 10'08" on the original album - 6'04 on this reissue
If I Like It I Do It is 6'58 on the original album - 4'53 on this reissue

These running times indicate one thing: either a CD or a CD master was used for this reissue and *not* the original vinyl album masters, 'cause the running times are identical to those on the CD. It's the same with the MOV reissue: running times identical to those on the CD and not the original vinyl release.

If they'd done a proper reissue of the original 1993 vinyl album, all the running times would have been the same. Get yourself the original 1993 vinyl release or the 2000 U.K. reissue, which is the only vinyl reissue that sports the correct running times.

Lovely art and sounds good except for the heavy inner groove distortion on Too Young To Die which is disappointing. this seems to be a common issue with this pressing

I recently bought this 2LP Clear vinyl and I must say that the sound is excellent. Clear, many details, a deep bass and no distortion. It comes with great artwork, nice innersleeves and insert.

Sonne très bien, quelques craquement mais ça partira à l'ultrason, saturation en fin de A2 cependant. Une belle édition spéciale et un excellent album

fantastic album great pressing... flat discs and dead quiet... this one was definitely done right

Does this version come with a slipmat? It seems it is being sold with the same slip mat from the High Times greatest hits Vinyl. -----> https://recordstore.co.uk/collections/jamiroquai/products/emergency-on-planet-earth-30th-anniversary-clear-vinyl-2lp-slipmat

Trop beau, sonne bien, craque pas, si on aime le Jami c'est une belle édition à avoir

Wow! This pressing sounds phenomenal and is imho the proper way to listen to this album.

This is because only the 1993 pressing (and the 2000 reissue, which is allegedly even better) contain the FULL version of: "When You're Gonna Learn", "Too Young To Die" and "If I Like It, I Do It".
To me there is a reason why these songs are that long. The "jamming" aspect of Jamiroquai was very important to them during their acid jazz phase. It is in their band name for a reason. You will only experience their interplay, their jamming, their musical chemistry fully on these cuts.

The shortened versions, which were taken for all reissues, take too much of this away, which to me is a shame.

You can also see how much care the band put into this release. It has beautiful innersleeves, an impressive psychedelic gatefold drawing and top notch quality vinyl.
I have known these songs for years and the improvement over digital releases is big! This pressing brings out all the musicality of Jamiroquai, that makes this band so great: The bass, the percussion, the overall attack. It is pure analogue joy.

Highly highly recommended! You should try to get your hands on this pressing, because it will probably never be repressed in the kind of quality I've described. This is unless some audiophile label will get its hands on the original tapes like Simply Vinyl did in 2000.
