Notes: Green Day’s debut album on a major label and their best-selling release with sales of over 10 million in the US alone. The album was recorded during a break in touring in the summer of 1993. The original title was supposed to be ‘Liquid Dookie’ but it was deemed to be too gross. In 2023, a 30th-anniversary edition of Dookie was released with demos and outtakes.
