Red Mosquito

Red Mosquito vs. I'm Open

No Code has what might be the first two moments in the catalog where I felt Eddie overwrote something. One of these is Off He Goes, and the Other is I'm Open. I bumped up against both pretty early and never recovered

RM rules.

RM but i wish they played the studio version of Im Open sometime.

I'm Open

Red Mosquito is possibly a top 5 Pearl Jam track for me. Isolate the drums and bass and it’s awesome, the slide guitar awesome, the outro interplay that would be inverted on I’m Open (“if I had known then what I know now” vs. “if I only knew now what I knew back then”) - just great stuff.
