Planet Gemini is the second studio album by guitarist Michael Angelo Batio, released in 1997 through M.A.C.E. Music; a second edition was reissued in 2002, containing a revised track listing and alternative instrumental versions of "So Much to Live For" and "These Four Walls" (both omitting their original vocals). The packaging also underwent some slight changes: Batio's full name was added to the cover art, whilst the back cover and liner notes had all instances of Washburn Guitars and Randall Amplifiers edited out. The title track and "Time Traveler" were remixed and remastered with acoustic drums for Batio's 2007 compilation album, 2 X Again.[1]
