Mega Man Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 7 hours ago, Gonzalo17 said: That's a Jerry Finn mix from kerplunk versión... in the booklet it say that they trained for dookie in the new studio recording covers (tired of waiting for you) and kerplunk tracks (2000 light, Christie Road and welcome to paradise) Right, I just finished that part. I'm saying if they're going through the trouble of hiring Jerry Finn to (re)mix a song, they had the option of the old version and the higher fidelity Dookie version. Though that was an interesting tidbit of why they recorded covers and older songs. They were maximizing efficiency by getting acquainted to the new studio setup playing existing compositions and creating potential B-side content. This makes me wonder whose call it was to say Welcome to Paradise was too good to be left as a B-side, making it all the way to a single. Anyways, there was plenty of facts that were new for me in there. Warner was pushing hard for the Pearl Jam and Nirvana producers. Green Day eventually took them up on Butch Vig for 21CB. I'm guessing the Pearl Jam producer refers to Rick Parashar, who sadly passed away in 2014. The lost mix of Dookie is intriguing. My curiosity would have me buy it in a heartbeat, but by all accounts it was an inferior product. This early version is also interesting for having completely different takes of Longview and Chump. Though they were deemed unusable because of audible tape hiss, I wonder if that could be fixed digitally. It's not super surprising, but the compositions for Dookie were pretty much finalized by the time they were in the studio. There was no tinkering or toying with songs when they were on studio time. Which reinforces my opinion that the songs on Dookie would still be the same whether they were on Lookout or Reprise. Production value and promotion were all they needed. Also, was it ever previously confirmed that Chump was one of the song about Whatsername? I always find that series of songs intriguing (I've only previously known She and Sassafras Roots). 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or you could consider Tokyo in 2005 (Remember, there was a live bonus disc for a Special Edition of Japanese AI with part of this show). Also, it would be nice the whole session from AOL (We just had a digital EP with four songs from that session) 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Preferably as a video release, so we can watch it in something that's better than 400x300 resolution! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post jengd Posted October 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 6, 2023 Don’t you just love when a journalist/writer doesn’t even know which album he’s talking about. How did he not know Dookie was not their debut album, 10 seconds with Google was all the “research” needed! 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see Homecoming and the two covers being removed ... but She and Jaded are pretty big staples for Green Day setlists. It's always irked me lol. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insomniac186 Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 Has anyone else noticed that the professionally recorded Dookie demos (labeled the "Casette Demos") were ripped from an actual cassette demo tape and aren't the actual master recordings? They sound nearly identical in audio quality to the versions that Todd posted on YouTube and aren't as clear sounding as if they came from a master. They probably just came from a cassette tape that was in better shape than Todd's copy. I wish they could have used the master recordings but maybe they don't have them anymore, or perhaps they wanted the listener to experience listening to the demo tape as it would have been in the 90s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
