Pearl Jam - Ten (1991)

Without a doubt, the best Pearl Jam album ever. I believe it sold like ten million records here in the states. It was one of those albums that creeped up on the billboard as it took sometime for people to figure out how good these new guys were. I still dispute with people with the Pearl Jam and Stone Temple Pilots comparison because I definitely believe STP is the better band. I think Pearl Jam was the definition of grunge like Soundgarden and Nirvana were true grunge legends. Eddie Vedder has one of the most well known voices still in modern rock today. I heard Kurt Cobain call Pearl Jam as sellouts...big freaking deal. Would you like to be a band playing at Starbucks or selling millions of records making music to the masses to gain fans and recognition. This is a over fifty minute record that people would crave for today for alternative rock fans are wishing to see. Songs to check out "Alive", "Even Flow" and "Jeremy".

1. "Once" 3:51
2. "Even Flow" 4:53
3. "Alive" 5:40
4. "Why Go" 3:19
5. "Black" 5:44
6. "Jeremy" 5:18
7. "Oceans" 2:41
8. "Porch" 3:30
9. "Garden" 4:59
10. "Deep" 4:18
11. "Release[I]" 5:05
