I like the 2000 era Corduroy, though my favorite live version of the song is probably the acoustic Bridge School version.

I was expecting the 2010 version to be terrible, but it was actually quite good. This has always been the quintessential Pearl Jam song to me and they usually nail it live. I'll give the nod to the 2000 versions partially because they were the first live versions I heard.

Or something like that. I cannot remember who, but this was posted on the old board and stuck with me ever since because for me, it's the truth.

They've brought a crunchy more vital attack to it the last few tours. It'll always be timeless no matter what.

Vitalogy era beats all. It only sounds right to me with Jack on drums.

Yup. Constitution Hall 1995-01-14 is my fav - the only vocal performance that comes close to the studio version, and followed by an equally awesome Not For You

there's that wish you were here "tag" on something there too (tremor christ?), which it sounds on recording like the crowd wet themselves over

Back when Mike used to play 12-string Rickenbacker on Corduroy and Not For You (and he didn't solo during the outro of the former).

The version of Corduroy EV did with that pick up band in Italy is pretty cool but very different.
