IM-003: L'esprit de l'exil

This scan is actually from the UK version. I don't know what the differences are between the scans though. We need higher quality scans for both Lu7 albums.

I made the scans for the UK prints a while ago with the worst scanner ever, good lord that thing sucked. The one I had been using was moved to parts unknown when the building it was in was torn down, so that was the best I had access to.

I've got a better one around so I can retake them sometime if I'm not feeling lazy.

OK, this is interesting. Looking at the scans you posted for FGBG 4572, they have both catalog numbers on it. I believe it has the same packaging for both printings.

Where did you get your copy from?

I plan to buy this album from Music Term:

(They also sell efflorescence.)

It says on the backs of both albums that Japan distribution was handled by InterMusic and distribution elsewhere was by Musea. Hence, two catalog numbers. I'm assuming they're both on the album so that two different versions of the album didn't have to be printed.

I pulled my copies of both albums from Amazon.com for $14.90 apiece. They're not going for that cheap any more, but it'd still be less than the higher prices from InterMusic + international shipping: L'esprit and efflorescence

I decided to get both InterMusic albums anyway. The album art itself seems all the same between the versions for both albums on initial inspection. Musea and InterMusic are both printed on the backs. However, the InterMusic albums have IM-specific obis on them. Maybe someday when I get a new scanner, I can scan everything and post it.
