Formed in 1984, Dinosaur Jr carved a singular path through the latter half of the 1980s, issuing three highly influential albums in the process before finding a home with Sire Records, who issued Green Mind in 1991 as the alternative American rock scene the band had long been part of exploded globally.

Produced by a stripped down line-up of the group (in fact, J Mascis himself plays almost everything), the album and Sire’s international reach took Dinosaur Jr’s reputation to a new level.

CD - Aided by the singles The Wagon and Whatever’s Cool With Me, a non-album EP of new material and live recordings, all of which are included here. Green Mind remains one of the band’s strongest collections, and a firm fan favourite.

Collected together here for the first time with related singles, B-sides and live recordings, and accompanied by in- depth sleevenotes from Mojo’s Keith Cameron (based on recent and exclusive interviews with J Mascis), this edition provides a thorough snapshot of the band at a period when all eyes were on American guitar groups, many of whom owed their existence to Dinosaur Jr.
