Free Music Notes for Weezer - Deluxe Edition
Free Music Review: A Fun Release!
Hit: 4 Stars
I like weezer...have always loved the blue album...the b-sides are cool...but for me...it's the kitchen recordings...it's great to hear a band recording themselves...especially in the early nineties...when you pretty much had to use a 4 track...undone the sweater song...recorded in all it's glory...not to mention the fact that these guys started a trend...you might notice their influence in just a few of the "cool" bands today...to say the least...Free Music Review: For the true Weezer fan
Hit: 4 Stars
While disc 1 is identical to the original Blue Album (read: awesome), disc 2 may fall short unless you are a true Weezer fan. Some of the b-sides are (predictably) less powerful than the more familiar Weezer tracks, leaving the listener feeling a little frusterated-wanting the full intensity Weezer has become famous for.Free Music Review: A Great Edition

Weezer's first album (aka The Blue Album) was a fresh breeze of music air amidst the staleness of the grunge rock that was beginning to repeat itself, and the harder edge that the next wave of alternative music was taking on. Their concert to promote this album wasn't bad either--who else would perform on stage with a cardboard Chewbacca? Hence my complaint about the Deluxe Edition of their excellent album--why so little? Yes there is a disk's worth of B-sides, but when you get down to it, there are only six real B-cuts here whereas the rest are rehashes. There are many other deluxes out on the market that bury this one in content choice and quality: check out the Marvin Gaye releases or The Who's Leeds and My Generation albums. Surely they could have found more alternate studio takes, and concert cuts, especially "Undone" (my personal fav); it's a shame about the lack of concert versions, because "Jonas" and "Surf Wax" to use a reviewer's cliche', really capture their onstage energy. Although I've never been big on them in general, the demos definitely reflect a rawer, more garagey side of the band, especially with "Paperface" and "Lullaby For Wayne". So, if you don't have the Weezer blue album, this will be a good buy, but for those of you already on your second CD copy, this may not as definitive a buy as you would wish (and pay) for--but it's something, at least.
