Dizzy: The Medicine Label Anthology

Double CD featuring their complete 1993–1995 recordings for The Medicine Label. Includes 13 bonus tracks (4 previously unissued). Packaging features new liner notes from Joe Marchese (TheSecondDisc.com). 

Green Apple Quick Step burst onto the music scene in 1993, just a few years after a band named Mookie Blaylock (soon to be rechristened Pearl Jam) played their first show opening for them.  Their first release, Wonderful Virus, was produced by Daniel Rey (Ramones, King Missile, Misfits), mixed by 14-time Grammy-winner Ron Saint Germain, and recorded at the iconic Bad Animals Studio (owned by Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart). Featuring “Dirty Water Ocean” and “Ludes And Cherrybombs,” the album put them in strong rotation on alternative radio. 

They followed it up with 1995’s Reloaded, produced by Pearl Jam guitarist Stone Gossard and multiple Grammy winner Nick DiDia (Bruce Springsteen, Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots, Rage Against The Machine). The album’s first single, “Dizzy,” was featured both in the film The Basketball Diaries, and on its soundtrack—sitting alongside tracks from The Doors, Soundgarden, Jim Carroll, and The Cult.  While both Wonderful Virus and Reloaded are being reissued on colored vinyl, they also comprise the heart of the double-CD Dizzy: The Medicine Label Anthology. Freshly remastered by multiple Grammy winner Michael Graves, the songs are as vibrant as they were three decades ago. 

To make this collection even more special, it contains nine bonus tracks including rare remixes and B-sides, and 4 previously unissued tracks featuring songs never before heard!  With packaging featuring new liner notes from Joe Marchese (TheSecondDisc.com) including a new interview lead vocalist Ty Willman, Dizzy: The Medicine Label Anthology captures the 1993–1995 Green Apple Quick Step experience. As exciting as the records were then, they still deliver to this day. So, get dizzy with Dizzy: The Medicine Label Anthology.
