Just noticed that Into the Wild has worldwide sales of 1.2 million. Thats pretty impressive.
Pearl Jam stands at 1.8 million and Backspacer continues its climb towards a million with 931000.

    That is a great song. I especially love the instrumentals that EV does. Is it true he plays almost all of the instruments on the album?

    ITW = perfect album thats all i've got to say. Doesn't surprise me at all It's sold so many.
    Where do you find out how many copies were sold? I've always wanted to know how to find
    that out.

    I hope Backspacer keeps climber up there aswell!! It's about time these boys start selling some
    records again!!
    looking up...wondering if there is anything that you cannot do....

    Backspacer creeping up on a million is nothing to sneeze at in these times. That's really impressive.

    Into the Wild was a very impressive first solo album- lots of people I think who didn't know much of PJ and EV were shocked by the "troubadour folky" sound and he made new fans.

    that doesnt surprise me at all
    its a fantastic soundtrack

    One of my fav albums-ever! I never tire of listening to it. Ed is a musical genius. The lyrics are awesome!

    Did "Photographs' become a PJ song eventually? It has a familiarity to it, but I can't place it.

    I would have liked it if End of the Road would have been played live by Ed but I don’t think he ever did. That’s the song I wanted the most when I saw him first in Berkeley in 2008

    I have a vinyl copy of the soundtrack and just looked on ebay to see how much they were going for, like $300-ish. Of course I would never sell mine.

    Check out 'Photographs', does it have a familiarity to it? I am losing my mind over it!

    Indeed it is totally perfection. I wish Ed could belt out another solo album like this.

    There’s a cool article in the latest Outside Magazine about the bus. It’s history, relocation and conservation. Informative, I recommend it.

    Love the record. Story is heartbreaking. I haven’t watched the movie since the theater premiere. That ending is one of the saddest, maybe the saddest in my movie watching history.
