I really love Sleep, and have been more than content owning the Jerusalem version for years. But I hear that Dopesmoker smokes it. Can it realy be THAT much better? Worth buying? Isn't there an extra live track, too? Also, if I get it, I'll get the LP, but doesn't that kinda take away from the continuity? How well do they split the sides? Fades?

It's amazing to me how this thread is generated anew once every two weeks. As always: Jerusalem is the version that Sleep didn't want you to hear, the same version that London pressed promos of before deciding to drop the band. Dopesmoker is the more "official" version with an extra track that paves the way for High on Fire. You don't need one if you have the other.

two years pass...
Weird that this was on ILM. I just listened to Dopesmoker today while I was walking around in the rain. It makes the rain feel like hellfire. I love this album, and I love the use of Sleep in Gummo. I need to get the Gummo soundtrack by the way, it's awesome.
I've never actually heard Jerusalem. How is it different? Is it the same recording split up? Is there stuff on it that is not on Dopesmoker? Is Dopesmoker the exact product they envisioned or is even that fucked with?

Drop out of life with bong in hand
Follow the smoke to-uh the riff-filled land
Drop…out of life with bong in hand
Follow the smoke to-uh the riff-filled land
Solo One
Proceeds the Weedian – Nazareth
Proceeds the Weedian – Nazareth
Creedsmen roll out across the dying dawn
Sacred Israel Holy Mountain Zion
Sun beams down on to the Sandsean reigns
Caravan migrates through deep sandscape
Lungsmen unearth the creed of Hasheeshian
Procession of the Weed-Priests to cross the sands
Desert Legion Smoke-Covenant is complete
Herb bails retied on to backs of beasts
Arise arise arise - The Son of the God of Israel
Jordan River flows on evermore
Bathe in glow of sunlight’s beating rays
They feel so lost and burned through our days
Stoner caravan emerge from sandsea
Earthling inserts to chalice the green cutchie
Groundation soul finds trust upon smoking hose
