Summary: Are you kidding me
Comment: Pearl Jam was a big disapointment to this listener. Do you think they could have sung a song where you could actually understood the words. What a waste of money when I bought this music.

Summary: My First Pearl Jam
Comment: This was the first Pearl Jam CD I have ever purchased. I am 43 years old, so Pearl Jam was getting famous while I was in my late 20s. I liked Alive when it first came out, but I kind of lost track of the band after that.
Now, I am starting to re-visit music from my past due to all the crap (for the most part) that is produced today. This double CD rocks. I love it. I use it to work out to and it is great "driving" music. The majority of the songs I had never heard before since I didn't really follow the band in the past, but there isn't one song on this I can't listen to without doing some air guitar somewhere on the track.
I am very pleased with this purchase, and for a double CD, it was a steal through Amazon. I found it several dollars higher at a big box store.
Like I have said on another review I did for a Bob Dylan CD, three of my four kids don't like it (my 17 year old son isn't repulsed by it) which makes it sound much better to me.

Summary: Pearl Jam the BOMB!!!
Comment: When I bought the 2 discs cd I thought it wouldn't be about nothing. But I was sooooo wrong this is the best collection of songs by Pearl Jam I am so glad that I bought this cd. My favorites are 'Garden','Jermey' and 'Once'. I like how the first cd is set up and the second cd is its like the songs are in order. I really recommend this to anyone that into 90's alternative rock. :-)

Editorial Reviews:

In an era when pop nihilism fulfilled its dark promise all too regularly, Pearl Jam not only survived, but thrived to become one of rock's greatest bands. This 33-track double-disc career retrospective documents the arc of a career that went from arena and radio triumphs in the early 90's (while Nirvana's promise imploded in the wake of hype, Pearl Jam's crowd-pleasing fame only burgeoned) to the uncompromising, core audience-focused tack that carried the band into the 21st century. Shrewdly compiled by the band into an "Up" disc that chronicles the band's driving, Stone Gossard-Mike McCready fueled hard rock dramatics (including such early career landmarks as "Jeremy," "Alive" and "Even Flow" alongside more aggressive fare like "Go" and "Spin the Black Circle") and a "Down" side that focuses more on Eddie Vedder's brooding, often dark ballads ("Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small Town," "Yellow Ledbetter," their unlikely hit cover of the oldie "Last Kiss"), it's a collection that underscores both the band's range and musical integrity. Though centered largely on the band's pre-Vitalogy studio era and containing no new material, longtime producer/collaborator Brendan O'Brien contributes remixes of "Once," "Alive" and "Black" that offer new insights on the familiar, while non-album tracks like "Man of the Hour" and "State of Love and Trust" considerably enhance the overall listening perspective here. --Jerry McCulley
