Ah, no, not the same, though your looks good too. The comp version is the tracklisting that was released prior to the album, plus it has God's Dice in the #2 slot (which wasn't included in the original tracklisting). What makes it work so well is radleybradout's mastering -- the whole thing flows completely naturally, and all the B-sides and outtakes feel like they belong right there they are.
Credit for the mastering goes to the legendary JWB, not me
I don't mind Ed changing/adding lyrics to songs when live. Even things like "big fucking trip" don't bother me, sometimes I even like it, "fuckin' how do I," "Father didn't give attention." I also don't mind rearranging lyrics, even if it's because of an initial mistake. What bothers me is when he gets something really wrong, like forgetting entire sections or repeating parts because he forgot what comes next, stuff like that.

This guy hasn't challenged himself musically I'm forever. The same shit over and over.
Even though I think it's arguably their best song, Ed and gang need to retire Corduroy for a few years. Then only play it again when the tempo is like that of the album. And no audience call/response, please, thanks.

I feel the same way about Corduroy. I love it, but seriously, slow the fuck down. And the call/response is awful.

Thank Christ for the studio track, which I still listen to regularly. Perfection.
Corduroy is one of the very few songs I would say I'd like to get at every show. Until this stupid call-and-respnose bullshit. It has completely ruined the song for me.

I used to be obsessed with non-album material. Now I just don't care. If I want to listen to Pearl Jam I just put on the albums proper and it feels so good.
