Most of their albums have a really strong 1-6 (maybe even 8). the number 5 slot has a few clunkers. :poke:stip ;)

Track 9 is far and away the worst (not counting anything over 12)

Well on number five you've got Black, Dissident, Nothingman, Smile, Wishlist, Nothing As It Seems, Ghost, Marker In The Sand, Just Breathe and Lightning Bolt. That's arguably the three best songs from the last three albums, and some Pearl Jam classics before that.

I'm going to have to disagree again (except for Marker :thumbsup:). JB, LB and Wishlist would prob all be in my bottom ten PJ originals. But we can talk about these when we get there.

Interesting. Not too crazy about Wishlist either, but yes...back to topic, I just wish Sometimes got more love. Underrated?

I love Sometimes, probably more now than ever. It's just perfect.

I wouldn't be unhappy with any of these songs popping up on a playlist.

The studio version of "Go" is really a fantastic song. I listened today for the first time in awhile and great things happen in it.

I listened to Vs a few weeks ago and it's such a tight album. It's all muscle and sinew. I love it.
