This mysterious reel found at the bottom of a treasure chest of other master recordings just happened to contain Weezer's very first studio sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese were the very same recordings that were responsible for earning the band a record contract for their iconic debut \"Blue\" album. These newly discovered sessions feature raw, vividly emotional and ecstatic versions of the band's timeless hit songs Say It Ain't So and Undone (The Sweater Song.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eSharp and legendary music producer Joe Chicarrelli took these recordings to Los Angeles' famed East\/West Studios, where the Beach Boys created Pet Sounds and Sinatra recorded My Way, to take a deeper look into this mythic reel of 1-inch Ampex tape. What the two men quickly discovered was the original lineup (with guitarist Jason Cropper) in an infectious, explosively joyful, feral form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eMaking the decision to honor the original intention of the music and the traditional technology of the era, the songs were remixed from top to bottom, from tape to vinyl, in a 100% analog process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith Sharp as producer and Chicarrelli on the mix, the result of these sessions makes up the entirety of the new Weezer album titled \"1192\" (named after the month and year it was originally recorded.) The illuminating spirit of the performances on 1192 are guaranteed to turn the world upside down for blue album fans everywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis album stands on it's own as an essential entry into the band's discography and is crucial to understanding the first chapter in Weezer's storied history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vinyl Veritas","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48107475861739,"sku":"26RSD244","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0653\/5692\/3115\/files\/418467310448_800.webp?v=1776388650","url":"https:\/\/www.vinylveritas.com\/products\/26rsd244","provider":"Vinyl Veritas","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
