'''''[[Pinkerton]]''''' is the second studio album by [[Weezer]]. It was releases on [[September 24]], [[1996]], by DGC Records, and later reissued in [[2010]].

==Overview==
The main ten song album released in 1996 was recorded in multiple different sessions taking place between August [[1995]] and June [[1996]].

Later, in [[2010]], an expanded version of the album was released, including songs recorded during the main album sessions that were either released as B-sides previously, or simply unreleased until now. Some of the unreleased songs featured overdubs recorded in [[2009]]. Multiple live shows and a solo [[Rivers Cuomo]] demo are also featured.

=== Songs from the Black Hole, as of February 1995 ===
{{Main|Songs from the Black Hole}}
''Songs from the Black Hole'' (hereby referred to and initialized as ''SFTBH'') was intended to be the follow-up to the ''Blue Album'', a space-themed rock opera inspired by the likes of Jesus Christ Superstar and Les Misérables. Cuomo would spend the Christmas break of 1994 and occasional time in the beginning of [[1995]] writing and demoing new music for this project, while sometimes slotting in older songs to fit the story as well (it is noted where a recording has already been listed). The first demoed tracklist is largely made up of recordings from Christmas break in 1994 and when the band was stuck in Germany in February.

{{Karlification box|Over Christmas break, Rivers worked feverishly on writing, and recording 8 track demos at home in Connecticut, and emerged with a "mock-up" demo of what he was starting to envision as weezers next album. Influenced by musicals, operas, and "rock-operas", "songs from the black hole" was an ambitious concept album idea.

By February 1995, Rivers had developed a tracklisting [henceforth known as "Tracklist 1"], and compiled a casssette of it from recordings as old as his late '93 "Tired of Sex" demo, and as recently as new recordings he made over the xmas '94 break at home. In Feburary 95, weezer was stuck in Hamburg, Germany for a week, as Matt had to rush home due to a family emergency, and the least expensive option in light of missing shows, was to just stay put till Matt got back. It was decided that at least some demos could be worked on, and Rivers and Pat rented a modest local recording studio in Hamburg. There the medium was the (then new) ADAT tape system. Both Rivers and Pat did a number of demos (and Pat and Karl even worked on some Southern Fried Swing when nothing else was going on [doing a track called "the complete history of techno", which was done solely to make fun of the nasty music being created in the studio next door]. However, it appears that NONE of the ADAT recordings were ever quite finished. Its POSSIBLE that some of the "black hole" songs were "upgraded" with a new recording here, and replaced on the cassette with fresh recorded demos of the same tracks.|[https://web.archive.org/web/20140519063524if_/http://daveandnikolai.com/wzr/classic/03_Recording_History/WeezRecHist7.html Weezer Recording History, Page 7]}}

=== Sessions at Electric Lady Studios, late August—September 6, 1995 ===

==== ''Pinkerton'' sessions ====
These sessions marked the beginning of the almost year-long recording process of the album that would become ''[[Pinkerton]]''. These songs, despite likely being recorded for the only partially-written ''SFTBH'', were all recorded separately with little to no story continuity, in order to get a jumpstart on the second Weezer album.

"[[You Gave Your Love to Me Softly]]" was re-recorded at these sessions, as [[Rivers Cuomo]] felt his singing suffered after his leg operation.<ref name="WeeziI3">[[Weezine Issue 3 - Summer 1995]]</ref>

{{Karlification box|A lot of stuff was happening all at once. The Blue album touring had finally been wrapped up. Rivers had gotten himself accepted at Harvard for the upcoming fall semester, and was looking forward to escaping the limelight for a while. The band was up for 5 different Mtv Video awards and the awards show was coming up on the 7th in NYC. I was to help the still leg-braced Rivers move to Boston immediately after the awards (which he ironically ended up not attending.) Studio time was booked, in order to get a head start on the new album, which was only partly written at this point.

Rivers was still holding out a torch for his "Black Hole " idea, but as recording got underway, the songs were laid down as before, one at a time- no story, no theatrics, no characters. This reality would later couple with a whole new set of emotions and ideas, spawned over his school year at Harvard, to forge a whole new idea for what was to be called "Pinkerton".

Meanwhile Pat was starting to pursue his own independent musical vision, having seen how Matt got himself his own record deal and noting a large block of "non-weezer" time coming up, courtesy of Rivers's newfound school schedule. Simultaneous to weezer's recording, he booked his own time at Electric Lady, and laid down some fairly slick demos. (see below) ...All this whenever his presence wasnt required down the hall in the other studio room. Phew!

Additionaly (as if enough wasn't going on), the summer 1994 recording of "Suzanne" was remixed in yet another Electric lady room. This remix would later appear on the "Mallrats" soundtrack.

The master tapes were then taken up to Fort Apache Studios in Boston, and worked continued on the guitars and vocals. In the end, only a few of these versions ended up on Pinkerton. Most were later re-recorded in LA.|[https://web.archive.org/web/20140519061842if_/http://daveandnikolai.com/wzr/classic/03_Recording_History/WeezRecHist8.html Weezer Recording History, Page 8]}}

=== Continued ''Pinkerton'' sessions at Fort Apache Studios, September 9-15, 1995 ===
The master tapes from the previous sessions were brought to Fort Apache Studios in Boston, MA, during the beginning of Cuomo's semester at Harvard, to work on vocals and guitars. These versions of the songs were leaked and bootlegged throughout the late 1990s.

==1996==

=== ''Pinkerton'' sessions at Sound City Studios, early January 1996 ===
Recording sessions continued in early January [[1996]],<ref name="WeeziI6">[[Weezine Issue 6 - Spring 1996]]</ref> lasting about two weeks. New, non-''SFTBH'' tracks such as "[[El Scorcho]]" and "[[Pink Triangle]]" were recorded, while Cuomo was also holding on to the ''SFTBH'' concept by this point. Some of the songs initially recorded at Electric Lady Studios were re-recorded to see if a new studio would make a difference, of which only one Electric Lady recording was deemed better.<ref name="WeeziI6" />

{{Karlification box|The recording lasted about 2 weeks. During this time, the following songs were worked to semi-completion

Rivers would then return to Harvard for spring semester, Matt would pick up his Rentals tour, Pat would go back into the studio himself, and Brian would continue gigging around LA with the Space Twins.

side note: According to Rivers "COR" document, El Scorcho was originally written at Harvard, October 1995|[https://web.archive.org/web/20140519061842if_/http://daveandnikolai.com/wzr/classic/03_Recording_History/WeezRecHist8.html Weezer Recording History, Page 8]}}

=== Continued ''Pinkerton'' sessions at Sound City, spring 1996 ===
By this time, the ''SFTBH'' idea had been abandoned in favor of the concept that became ''Pinkerton'', and thus the two songs recorded in January were canned with it. These sessions happened during Cuomo's spring break at Harvard and were mainly just continued work on the sessions from January.
{{Karlification box|Rivers flew out to LA, and the band got together to continue plugging away at the new album. By this time Rivers had had some major breakthroughs, having written "The Good Life" , Across the Sea" , "Falling for you" and "Butterfly" during his strange months at Harvard.|[https://web.archive.org/web/20140519061842if_/http://daveandnikolai.com/wzr/classic/03_Recording_History/WeezRecHist8.html Weezer Recording History, Page 8]}}

=== Final ''Pinkerton'' sessions, May-August 1996 ===
[[Image:Weezer Pinkerton.jpg|''[[Pinkerton]]'' cover art|thumb|150px|right]]
These sessions saw the introduction of engineer [[Dave Fridmann]], in for [[Joe Barresi]] after the band kept asking for the album to sound like ''[[wikipedia:Clouds Taste Metallic|Clouds Taste Metallic]]'' by the [[The Flaming Lips|Flaming Lips]]. "[[The Good Life]]", "[[Across the Sea]]", "[[Falling for You]]", and "[[Butterfly]]" had been written by the time of the previous sessions, but weren't tracked until these sessions in the summer. Most of the album was worked to completion by June at Sound City, with "Butterfly" being recorded at 6 in the morning on the final day of recording. "[[Devotion]]", "[[Waiting on You]]", and "[[You Gave Your Love to Me Softly]]" were also completed for B-sides, while "[[I Swear It's True]]" and "[[Getting Up and Leaving]]" were nearly completed but abandoned. Recording later moved to Sunset Sound Recorders in Los Angeles, where [[Rachel Haden]] recorded her vocals for "[[I Just Threw Out the Love of My Dreams]]" in one take, while recording a few extra takes just in case. By this point, Sharp had left to continue work on ''Seven More Minutes'', so during a last-minute session at Rumbo Recorders in Canoga Park, [[Adam Orth]] was called in to play bass. This session resulted in "[[Tragic Girl]]" being worked on but eventually abandoned. Mixing was done with [[Jack Joseph Puig]] at Ocean Way Recording in Los Angeles, and the intro to "Across the Sea" was recorded on [[August 13]]. The album was released on [[September 24]].

{{Karlification box|After a ton of last minute studio juggling, all 10 tracks were eventually finished and mixed, plus:

*devotion
*you gave your love... (new version)
*waiting on you
*i just threw out the love of my dreams (w/ Rachel Haden)

Also nearly finished were:
*i swear its true
*getting up and leaving

Both of these were worked on to the point of just needing a final mixdown. Although this was never official, its nearly certain that they would have been the b-sides to "Pink Triangle", if that had been put out as a "for sale" single. Of course, that never happened, and the songs were never dusted off and finished up. Note that Matt Sharp had left the recording session early, to fly back to London and continue work on his own second Rentals record. This left the band in a bind near the end, and a substitute bass player was brought in for some of the late b-sides sessions. more info on this as its sorted thru.

Later, "I Swear its true" saw some action at a few soundchecks and at exactly one show in 1994. "Getting up and leaving" was never played at a show, but was possibly played at a soundcheck or 2|[https://web.archive.org/web/20140519061842if_/http://daveandnikolai.com/wzr/classic/03_Recording_History/WeezRecHist8.html Weezer Recording History, Page 8]}}

==1997==

=== "Pink Triangle" B-side sessions, spring 1997 ===
While Sharp was recording in London with the Rentals, there was a lot of doubt from the rest of the band that they were going to be able to get him back to America in time for the [[Pinkerton Tour#Opening for No Doubt|summer tour with No Doubt]]. "Pink Triangle" was also on track to be released as a single (which never happened in a large capacity, only promotional copies) and they didn't have any B-sides. Both [[Geffen Records]] and the band's management felt that if the song were to be released as a single, it would need a lot of cleaning up. Studio time at Fort Apache was booked for Cuomo's spring break at Harvard, where two bass players were auditioned: [[Scott Riebling]] (then of Letters to Cleo) and an unknown person named Alex (who Cuomo described as a "bald guy with earrings"). The band ultimately chose Riebling, who played bass on the mostly re-recorded version of "Pink Triangle" with new guitars for radio, alongside completely new versions of "I Swear It's True" and "Getting Up and Leaving".

{{Quote|Actually, there were a few levels of auditions. First there was a cattle call type audition that was held during the daytime at one of boston's Lansdowne street clubs, Axis. I would guess that there were at least 20 bass players there, and I was the first to play. This was the start of what ended up being the most amazing few weeks of my life. Back then, and even to this day, if anyone asks me who my favorite bands of all time are I will retort, the Beatles, Zeppelin, and Weezer. Damn, was I nervous, but totally in heaven. I will never forget the feeling of the guys kicking in with Tired of Sex, at that time my favorite weezer song, my favorite (still together) rock band with ME on bass!! Holy sh*t. I played a few more songs, then Rivers asked if I had a fender bass, and if I could bring it to the next phase of auditions. I thought my '71 gibson les paul signature bass was pretty cool, certainly quite rare, but it didn't have that charasteristic weezer sound.

The next phase of auditions was held at a Boston recording studio called New Alliance. At this point the 20 or so bass players had been narrowed down to five, and we were asked to pick a different set of tunes to play than we had auditioned with the first time.

The last phase of the audition was held at Fort Apache studios, where Pink Triangle would ultimately be completed. Two bass players were invited to this session/audition, me and Mikey Welsh (I think??????) We were both asked to record our version of the bass for Pink Triangle on the original 24 track tape. Mikey (I thought????) went first, and I was told he took about 45 minutes. I went second, took about 10 minutes, then I was cheerfully told by Rivers that I got the gig!

Actually, the entire song was scrapped except for the bells, the vocals, and the drums. All the guitars, bass, and keys for this track were totally recut. I remember how amazing Rivers was as a producer, totally helping guide me to a much better bass line than [either] Matt or I had originally come up with. He brought in this totally ancient EML synthesizer [the Electrocomp 101] that used 1/4 inch patch cables to route the sounds within the instrument. This is a really difficult synth to tune, and get a good sound out of, but the tone rivers got out of it was bigger than a freight train.

Actually, both of these songs were totally recut, drums and all. I wasn't even aware that there were versions of these songs that had been recorded before those Fort Apache/Pink triangle dates. I think there were two more songs that we worked on other than I swear it's true, and Getting up and leaving.|Scott Riebling|[https://web.archive.org/web/20140519064836if_/http://daveandnikolai.com/wzr/classic/03_Recording_History/WeezRecHist9.html Weezer Recording History, Page 9]}}

The validity of the statement about there having been two extra songs recorded is unclear.

{{Karlification box|Weezer wasnt sure if they were going to get Matt back from his extensive U.K. Rentals sessions in time to play the summer tour with No Doubt, plus there was a new single coming out and it wasnt radio-ready.

The problem was that Geffen Records and the bands management felt strongly that if "Pink Triangle" was going to get radio play, it needed a serious cleaning up. Rivers had switched from holding firm to being flexable about what was necessary to get a Pinkerton song on the radio, after the fair-at-best national performance of 'The Good Life' back in the winter. Additionally, there were no b-sides ready to go for the international retail single, With "I Swear Its True" and "Getting Up And Leaving" never having been finished the previous summer during the L.A. Pinkerton sessions.

Rivers was still in Harvard doing his Spring semester, but scheduled a session at Fort Apache for his spring break to get the new single ready for the summer tour. In the absence of Matt, 2 bass players were auditioned, Scott Riebling (formerly of Letters To Cleo) and another guy who no one can recall. Scott got the job.

Scott Riebling comments, 2005:
"Actually, there were a few levels of auditions. First there was a cattle call type audition that was held during the daytime at one of boston's Lansdowne street clubs, Axis. I would guess that there were at least 20 bass players there, and I was the first to play. This was the start of what ended up being the most amazing few weeks of my life.

Mikey (I thought????) went first, and I was told he took about 45 minutes. I went second, took about 10 minutes, then I was cheerfully told by Rivers that I got the gig!"

On the task of shaping Pink Triangle up, Scott re-cut the bassline, making it cleaner and tighter. Rivers did some additional subtle work, and the track was sent to Miami, to be re-mixed by Tom Lord-Alge.

Scott Riebling: "Actually, the entire song was scrapped except for the bells, the vocals, and the drums. All the guitars, bass, and keys for this track were totally recut. I remember how amazing Rivers was as a producer, totally helping guide me to a much better bass line than [either] Matt or I had originally come up with. He brought in this totally ancient EML synthesizer [the Electrocomp 101] that used 1/4 inch patch cables to route the sounds within the instrument. This is a really difficult synth to tune, and get a good sound out of, but the tone rivers got out of it was bigger than a freight train."

Then the b-sides were tackled. Though they were essentially done and needed only a mix, Scott was asked to re-cut the bass on both, as it was decided that the summer '96 Matt bass work was rushed and incomplete. Rivers then decided to make some lyric changes to "Getting Up And Leaving", and worked on vocals for both the songs for some time. Its not known exactly what happened at this point, but the final result was that the 2 songs were never given a final mix, and to date remain in rough mix form, unreleased.

Scott Riebling: "Actually, both of these songs were totally recut, drums and all. I wasn't even aware that there were versions of these songs that had been recorded before those Fort Apache/Pink triangle dates."

In the end, Matt indeed returned in time to start the tour, and the Pink Triangle single was given a radio only promo release (backed with the acoustic Pink Triangle version from the fall '96 Shorecrest High show). The word from Geffen was that the single would be gauged at radio to determine if it had the strength to get a retail release and a video, but the odds were against the 'lesbian' themed song, and releasing it as a promo single only belied Geffen's lack of confidence in the song to do well.

*Pink Triangle (re-cut bass, other minor elements, re-mixed)
*I Swear It's True (re-cut bass, vocals, no final mix)
*Getting Up And Leaving (re-cut bass, vocals, new lyrics, no final mix)

Scott Riebling: "I think there were two more songs that we worked on other than I swear it's true, and Getting up and leaving."

The identities and fates of these other 2 unknown recordings remain a mystery in 2011.|[https://web.archive.org/web/20140519064836if_/http://daveandnikolai.com/wzr/classic/03_Recording_History/WeezRecHist9.html Weezer Recording History, Page 9]}}

There are 2 different Y-100 compilation CD'S that feature songs from this. One has "undone", the other has "the good life"

The y100 sonic session was not broadcast live. The sonic sessions are always aired the following sunday morning. An interesting side note is that 4 weeks after the sonic session aired on the radio, a local WB-owned station WPHL 17 aired the video version which showed undone, good life, pink triangle, and el scorcho, as well as interviews of the fans by a local dj. "Undone" from this video version (featuring the avant-weird poetry raps of Tim Levitch) appeared on the Weezer DVD.|[https://web.archive.org/web/20140519064836if_/http://daveandnikolai.com/wzr/classic/03_Recording_History/WeezRecHist9.html Weezer Recording History, Page 9]}}
