Classic Album Review: Weezer | Weezer (The Blue Album): Deluxe Edition

The first LP from Rivers Cuomo & co. gets the deluxe treatment for its 10th birthday.

This came out in 2004 – or at least that’s when I got it. Here’s what I said about it back then (with some minor editing):

 


THE SKINNY: Geeks, rejoice: On its 10th anniversary, this debut disc from Rivers Cuomo and his power-pop nerd-gods Weezer gets the full Deluxe Edition reissue treatment.

THE OLDIES: Buddy Holly, Undone – The Sweater Song, Say it Ain’t So, In The Garage.

THE GOODIES: An extra disc of live cuts, demos and quality B-sides like the sock-hop waltz Susanne and the poignant Mykel and Carli; a 28-page booklet of liner notes and lyrics.
