    So funny, I had a hard time with those choices too. I almost switched them to the exact order you suggested! I was listening to Single Theory Podcast episode of favorite/least favorite tracks and found this thread. I was 18 when Ten came out and "grew up" with the band. Interesting that earlier albums rank higher for me and later albums lower. Not a bad album in the bunch though!

    Yield is tops, so give it 5 points.  Everything else is kinda tied for me, honestly.  But for the sake of the poll, here goes:

    1. Yield (5)
    2. Binaural (4)
    3. Vitalogy (3)
    4. Vs. (2)
    5. Pearl Jam (1)

    Really tough to leave Backspacer & No Code out. If you ask me to do this again a month, 6 months, a year, 3 years down the road I'm sure it would be completely different.
