The Goo Goo Dolls is an alternative rock band hailing from Buffalo, New York. Formed by John Rzeznik, Robby Takac, and George Tutuska, with Mike Malinin joining later on as the drummer. Their commercially successful single "Iris" in 1998 catapulted them to fame, but they have had numerous other popular hits including "Name", "Broadway", and "Slide". With 14 top ten singles and over 10 million albums sold worldwide, the Goo Goo Dolls have left a lasting impact on the music industry.

In October 2012, *Iris* was ranked #1 on Billboard's "Top 100 Pop Songs 1992–2012" chart. Their biggest hit spent nearly a year on the charts and held the number one position for an impressive 18 weeks. The band's record of achieving 14 top ten hits at hot AC radio format remains unmatched. They continue to captivate audiences with their music, releasing their latest album *Magnetic* in June 2013.

Similar artists to the Goo Goo Dolls include Vertical Horizon, Dishwalla, Counting Crows, Everclear, Matchbox Twenty, Five For Fighting, Blessid Union Of Souls,and many more talented performers who share their alternative rock style.

Warner Bros. Records, founded in 1958 by Jack Warner, started as a soundtrack factory for Warner Bros. movie studios. Over the years, it has evolved into a renowned label with subsidiary labels like Reprise Records, Sire Records, Maverick Records, Warner Nashville, Warner Jazz, Warner Western, and Word Label Group. With more than 60 years of experience in the industry and an impressive roster of artists across various genres, Warner Bros. has become a leading name in the music world.

The label has used several pressing facilities including *Capitol Records* and *Columbia Pressings*. Throughout its history, Warner Bros. has had different label designs for mono LPs and stereo LPs. From grey labels with black WB Shield to gold labels with Vitaphonic Long Play or Stereo wording at the bottom; from green labels featuring the W7 logo to palm trees labels without any address mentioned; and finally transitioning to tan labels with narrow horizontal lines before settling on white labels with large WB shield and ghosted gray shields floating in the background since 1983.

To determine first pressings of US LPs on this label, collectors can look out for specific details such as color variations on the label design or Saul Bass W logo on sleeves introduced after 1975. The presence or absence of certain addresses on palm trees labels also helps identify different pressings over time.
