Pearl Jam: Ten- 1991

Andrew Wood was a good singer, but the only studio album that they ever put out just showed the promise of the band and in general was just fairly average. To make any type of comparison between them and PJ is just trying to rock the boat.

Agree with Soldier. I'm really only familiar with early Pearl Jam (although I did see them on the Backspacer tour), and I'm not as well versed as Soldier with the band, but to say that there are only a few good songs on Ten is an unfair statement.

My two personal Pearl Jam albums are probably No Code and Binaural and these are mid-period.

The few good songs reference was directed to Mother Love Bone by Duga and not to Pearl Jam.

No believe it or not I am a hard-core MLB fan.

Maybe the boat needs to rocked? Why not this is the internet, the one last free bastion of Free Speech!

Besides a comparison could be in order when one considers that PJ themselves cover MLB songs! (Hmm... Maybe PJ is not that bad after all... have to think about it awhile...)
