Green Mind is the fourth studio album by alternative rock band Dinosaur Jr., released in 1991.[1][2] It was the band's first release after bassist Lou Barlow's departure, as well as the first released by a major label.[3] The record is close to being a J Mascis solo album: he played most of the instruments, with founding drummer Murph only featuring on three tracks (1, 7 and 9).[4]

The cover photograph depicting a child smoking a cigarette, Priscilla, Jones Beach, 1969, is by Joseph Szabo[5] and taken from his book of photographs Almost Grown.

"Turnip Farm" is also featured in the film Reality Bites.
