Post Random Pearl Jam-Related Thoughts You Have

[Monkey_Driven]

those are the only two PJ covers I enjoy, they can stay

Correct.

[Leatherhead]

Eddie's love for ending shows with big rock anthems he didn't write, like Rockin in the Free World, and Baba O Riley....charming or cringey?

Stop cringing at things.

[Matters]

There’s never been a debate needed to decide what is Pearl Jam’s best guitar solo.

She's a marathon listening champ
clocks in under 2 hours.

Alone in the three-spot it a tough hill to climb

Classic 90s guitar wailing with nice interplay that's brought out with the Lost Dogs production. What's not to like.

"Here's two monsters to start things off: Corduroy, a wooly mammoth of a tune, all snarling angst and anguished vocals, with a real catchy hook to temper things out. Followed by Animal, just an absolute beast of a track, ferocity in waveform.

Then there's Alone. It's a weird outtake. There's a real boring guitar riff barely holding things together, and Ed tries some goofy falsetto stuff. Enjoy!"

ehhh .. yeah, ok

cut big wave

[The Town]

I concede your point on Alone trag haha and Daughter really belongs in there somewhere.

The fade out of Big Wave into the fade in to Last Exit is perfection and Big Wave could be chalk full of problems on first listen but it can get so good.

[dad]

i'd say Corduroy is my personal all-time fav song by them, and i respect going with the studio cut, but man...that version from the first Self-Pollution radio....woooo boy.

[Coach]

The alternate Corduroy take from the reissued Vitalogy is another solid choice. Anything but the current (and way too fast and long) versions.

[Wendy Carlos's Twin]

The alternate Corduroy take from the reissued Vitalogy is another solid choice. Anything but the current (and way too fast and long) versions.

Take note that the beginning is the same version as Vitalogy. The rest of the Vitalogy version is from the Atlanta concert with overdubs. So now one can hear both full versions that comprise the original Vitalogy edit.
