'''1,000 Hours''' is the first release from
American
punk rock band
Green Day and the first of several releases for the independent record label
Lookout! Records, the label that nurtured the band's development in their early years before their signing with a major label in 1993.
It was recorded in 1988 while the band was still named "Sweet Children," and released in early 1989 on vinyl only, with several different colors of vinyl available in limited quantities. Upon its release, it was also available with a pink cover. Shortly after it was recorded, the band changed their name to Green Day, despite the objections of Lookout Records' owner Lawrence "Larry" Livermore.
In 1991, all of the songs from ''1,000 Hours'' were reissued on ''
1,039/Smoothed Out Slappy Hours''. 1,000 Hours remained in print until August, 2005 when Green Day removed their catalog from Lookout! Records.
Guitar/Lead Vocals: Billie Joe Armstrong, Bass/Backing Vocals: Mike Dirnt, Drums: John Kiffmeyer a.k.a. Al Sobrante
