I forgot that section of Big wave even existed which probably says something. Wow Mike is shredding its weird I dont remember it at all.

But Yellow Ledbetter solo is very nice and definitely wins. Sometimes speed and shredding doesnt win, something slow can have a lot more impact. I really like the little slow trill to end it..

There are some real laughers in this round.

The big wave shredding is fun, but also kind of indistinct in a song where that kind of playing is also built into its basic DNA.

The playing on the Yellow Ledbetter solo is gorgeous even if the tone is a little obvious.


I think Yellow Ledbetter may be the most underrated pearl jam song around these parts.


Yellow Ledbetter, easily

Yellow Ledbetter is a classic for a reason.

I'd be happy with YL taking this whole thing.
