title: weezer - s/t a.k.a "the green album"
label: geffen / interscope
id #: gefcd-
released: may 15, 2001
format: cd, cassette, vinyl LP
songs:
1. don't let go
2. photograph
3. hash pipe
4. island in the sun
5. crab
6. knock-down drag-out
7. smile
8. simple pages
9. glorious day
10.o girlfriend.
notes: weezer's 3rd album, available in CD, cassette and (USA) vinyl edition (vinyl limited to approx 5000 copies, some of them on lime green vinyl, the rest on black vinyl - unclear how many of each). UK version of this album includes "i do". japanese version of this album includes "the christmas song" and "i do". There is also a UK vinyl edition, in green vinyl with no bonus track.
USA CD strange variations: some US Green Album CDs have erroneous tracklistings, in which there are 2 track 5's listed, so that "O Girlfriend" ends up being "track 9". the cd's play normally, its just a weird typo that happened to approximately 5 percent of the cds.
Also, some people have reported their disc looks different. The normal cd is lime green with white "weezer" lettering. But some people have reported their cd's have a more 'bright' green tint, with blue "weezer" lettering. This is a fairly rare pressing error, but the discs play fine.

songs: hash pipe + bsides, listed in "notes"
notes: the UK single came out in 3 formats. CD - enhanced w/ "hash pipe", "starlight", the jimmy pop (bloodhound gang) remix of 'hash pipe",' and the "hash pipe" video (CD-ROM).
the cassette version has "hash pipe" and "starlight".
the vinyl 7" version contains "hash pipe" and "teenage victory song"(note: some jackets erroneously say "starlight" and some 7" labels have "teenage victory song" labels on both sides of the record. These are both errors. No matter what the record or the jacket says, all 7"s have "Hash Pipe" b/w "Teenage.." on the b-side
more notes: the picture sleeve photo was shot during the outloud tour. it's a rivers cardboard cutout being pushed by mikey (notice the =w= light being set up in the back. actual record wax is clear green.

title: untitled (special french promo cd)
label: geffen / Universal
id#
released: late 2001
format: cd
songs: "Crab" [Live]; "Dont Let Go" [Live], "Always" [Jack Joseph Puig remix]
notes: this cd was originally intended to be packaged with the Green Album in France, as a special bonus cd shrinkwrapped to the main CD. Apparently the French record company decided the promotion wasn't necessary due to the Green Albums sucess in France, and the idea was scrapped. However, a small amount of the actual promo cd were in fact pressed. The live songs are from the Extended Midget Tour, the Always 'remix' is the same mix as the b-side found elsewhere.
