The return of holy sounds of Ghost, with the long-awaited reissue of their first three releases: Ghost (s/t), Second Time Around, and Temple Stone are
 back on vinyl, twenty-five years since they were last in print. These 
first three Ghost titles were originally released by P.S.F. on CD in 
1990, 1992 and 1994, respectively, radiating enigma and energy in 
palpable waves with their original sound. After the acclaim that greeted
 Drag City’s 1996 US release of Lama Rabi Rabi, they quickly 
reissued all three on vinyl — and they quickly went out of print! The 
first two studio albums, each one an iteration of Ghost’s unique 
lysergic folk music, were followed by the monolithic “live in various 
places” happening of Temple Stone, which raised the trippiness 
levels considerably. But this was only the end of the beginning. In the 
twenty year sweep of Ghost history, these first three releases qualify 
as embryonic early Ghost — sort of like a German Os Mutantes (or perhaps
 a Brazilian Amon Düül). Clearly inspired by various forms of 
transcendental music throughout history, Ghost created a new syncretic 
psychedelia with these albums, mixing the texture and vibe of 
multinational forms of traditional music, with strummed antique stringed
 instruments and the haunting wail of a recorder on top of their heavy 
beats and guitars. The considerable depth of this approach was explored 
through 2014 over another five Ghost LPs, as well as the further 
explorations to the present day of leader Masaki Batoh, as a solo artist
 and with The Silence, Damon and Naomi, Helena Espvall and most 
recently, nehan.
