Since we're mostly a grown up group here, I would also think most people know Into The Wild and the albums you included, but so far the votes seem very heavily tilted in Pearl Jam's favor.

Does a non-PJ track have a chance of winning this whole thing? It would be very RM of us.

Don't think it will happen. But let's say you put together a 12 track greatest songs from all the side material (not including Soundgarden), that collection would be on par with Pearl Jam albums in quality.

River of Deciet, Hunger Strike, and The Haves could all go far

I thought it was considered the Future Days of that album. There are some great songs on the Earthling record.
