That Vs. / Better Man part lasts 30 mins (1hr 23 to 1 hr 53 min). It's good stuff.

Does he talk about playing the solo in Hard To Handle by the Black Crowes?

Yes.

Yes.

Sweet.

Well, I know what’s gonna keep me from getting any work done this afternoon.

Stupid Mop.

This is fascinating.

I don’t think I ever knew he engineered BSSM or that he had been associated with Rubin.

goddang Brendan's stuttering cadence is hard to listen to

Whoa. He recorded Atlanta 94 night one too.

Man alive, i could hear him go instrumnet/mic by mic on every track on all of those PJ albums and never get bored.

Ditto

I'm really not "bring back Dave A" guy because it's too late for that, but I totally agree with Brendan that Dave A was the engine of Pearl Jam. Pretty much the only time we've seen something similar since that was when Stuverud played with the band. Great interview.

That King’s X album, Dogman, he talks about is fucking boss, by the way.

holy heck! Never seen this but its from a year ago it seems - wow Eddie sounded amazing here. Im so baffled by how he sounds good and bad on different days, but man this was an on day. He obviously must respect U2 a lot because he put so much heart into this performance. Loved it. He's really still got it (sometimes).

i went on a big u2 kick after this. their 80s/early 90s stuff is so good. i also love watching all these famous people watch in awe at eddie vedder singing this. it's almost like watching your team win a championship. i remember watching this live with my wifes family and saying "that's my boy! did you see the president and first lady give him a standing ovation?"

Watching the Brendan interview right now.

I cant believe this dude was involved in so many great stuff and ended doing LB among other shit. And with a very weird vibe at least with the SG camp too.

i forgot he played on Mick Jagger´s Wandering Spirit. What a fucking great album.
