Actually self-titled but unofficially referred to as `The Green Album', this record earned its nickname due to its green artwork. Certified platinum and spawning three hit singles `Hash Pipe', `Photograph' and `Island In The Sun' - the Green album is a favorite among many fans. Reissued on 120g vinyl with standard jacket.

Only bought because cousin was missing it
I have no idea if it's good, it seems it was as it had no issues from out of the box. My cousin was happy that's all that matters.

I need a 6th star
This CD is a great musical enema for anyone who has forgotten the guilty joys of catchy, hook-laden, sub-three minute power pop tunes.The whole thing is like one long 28 minute hook that won't quit. As for the brevity of this collection (10 songs in 28 minutes)..hey, it lets you get back to the first song faster so you can hear the whole thing over again....definitely not a bad thing. Just when you think things may be about to slow down (the intro's to "Simple Pages" and "Glorious Days" sound a bit soft at first) off they zoom again into the stratosphere. Turn up the volume on this thing, and if anyone complains (your wife, girlfriend, sister or neighbors) just turn it up louder...to 11. Is there any new musical ground broken here?..no, but it's still a pleasure to hear that thick, clean guitar sound that is so absent from today's radio. My only complaint is that it would have been nice to hear Rivers stretch out a bit more on some of the solos.This goes to the top of my list for album of the year, with the Old 97's "Satellite Rides" a close second....another hook heavy power pop CD that doesn't quit from one song to the next. As for Weezer.....get Green!

Weezer Strikes a Familiar Chord
Like the come back album from Weezer, this review will be short.At just over 28 minutes long, this album barely gives you the opportunity to get into before it's leaving the stage. And you have to listen to it a few times before the songs stop blending into a 28 minute stream of power chord pep. But that can be said of a lot of really good albums (the blending bit, not the pep bit).That being said, this album is true to Weezer's upbeat and fun loving pop sound. Hash Pipe, Photograph, Island in the Sun, Simple Pages and O Girlfriend have the power to distinguish themselves from the fold while the rest may have you singing along but most likely won't make it to your shower concert set list. Honestly, though, I am amazed (and pleasantly suprised) at how far Weezer has been able to push this sound.Overall, I am very pleased with this album only taking off points for length and a couple of duds. If they would have included Sugar Booger, it would be a five star for sure.On a side note, my fiance' and I will be doing our first dance to Island in the Sun. It should be pretty amusing.

Weezer's best album, also one of the cheapest
Vinyl Quality is superb, clear, not too much Treble. Shipping via Prime, you'll usually always get it within 48-72 hours.This is Weezer's best album... I know the Blue and Pinkerton Eliteists are crying for my head.... But there are just too many catchy songs, plus take into consideration that this album probably inspired the entirety of the 2000's Pop Punk phenomenon. Weezer does powerchords the right way here and have never been able to catch what this album cought since.Take a break from the Blue album and give this another listen, the price makes it worth it.
