I don't really listen to R. Kelly I just love that whole Trapped in the Closet thing.

No Code is a lot of people's favourite. I know that. I happen to think it is down to nostalgia for a lot of people, not necessarily people on RM. Just saying it out loud but qualifying it as my opinion shouldn't ruffle any feathers. Vitalogy is my favourite album. No Code was my biggest disappointment. I rarely, if ever, can manage to listen to that album the whole way through. Aside from the three songs I mentioned, Red Mosquito is probably the only one which does anything for me. I just don't like the songs. I don't care how 'experimental' or 'creative' they are if I don't like them. Long Road and I Got Shit (from the same era) are better for me than most of the tracks on No Code.

No Code isn't in my top 3 but this is madness. The run of tracks 1-6 is top form. Nearly a five star album and not even close to thir best. Wow.

What a fucking single. They should have written and recorded a whole album of PJ songs with Neil instead of just these 2.

Cut Habit, I'm Open and Mankind from No Code and it's my favorite Pearl Jam album, and maybe the best album of the 90s.

No Code is my favorite PJ album, and the fact I'm here speaks to my PJ fandom, but OK Computer wins Album of the 90s, even if I might not like to admit it.

I wouldn't cut any of the songs, but a little rearranging would be good. I hate the transitions from Lukin -> PT -> Mankind. Bad flow.
