Pearl Jam music for driving?

A colleague of mine works his last day tomorrow and I wanted to give him a gift of some kind. He's gonna roadtrip through Europe with his son this summer so I thought about giving him reaerviewmirror to have as music on the road. But no fucking record stores here in Gothenburg has it in stock.

So thinking about making my own collection instead. Like 10-12 songs. 

What Pearl Jam songs works best for driving?

    Every time we take a road trip 3+ hours we throw on a bootleg. Always great for killing time in the car.

    Most of Yield, to me, is perfect to listen to in the car, expecially if we're talking summer season

    For a person not into Pearl Jam.. I wouldn't wanna give a bootleg- That could be hit or miss. If its not Benaroya Hall ofc.

    I found an extra CD copy of the Sthlm 2012 show though so I'm gonna give that :) So bootleg it is.

    Gorge 1 July 22/2006. Ok I'm partial to it and it's when we really got into this band. I'd downloaded the boot(we did not attend) and then we went on a week long road trip. The references to how hot it was really fit the summer. "It was 104F yesterday down in Portland, it's supposed to be 116F here today, clouds never looked so good" for instance.

    Yes over time I've to realize that 7/23/06 is awesome also. It's getting a good workout in the deck of my pickup over the last couple of weeks.

    My favorites in the car are "Yeild" and the two disc "Rearviewmirrow" (one side for day driving, one for night). 
    “The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man [or woman] who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”
    Variously credited to Mark Twain or Edward Abbey.

    TECHNICALLY not a PJ album but I have a long commute to work and have been spinning the Singles Soundtrack (reissue) non stop. If Birth Ritual doesn't get heads bobbing your friends are probably dead.
