Which was your 1st PJ album that you've ever listened to and

Ten on cassette...and Ten

Ten on cassette. I spent more time in my car than at home.

Forrest

Ten.
I was in college and my best friend and I (roommates at that time) listened to it so much that it's the soundtrack to that part of our lives...actually, to any point in our lives I suppose...we basically listened to it at all times in late 1991 and all of 1992 but now when I listen to it (which is still a lot, at least once a week or so) my fondest memories of it are drifting off to sleep to Release and waking up to any part, but somehow usually Once woke me up, as we just turned down the volume instead of turning it off when we finally went to sleep and always had it set to repeat. They have been my music ever since.

I was a junior in high school right around the time Yield came out, I had heard a couple of the songs from it on the radio and loved them, but didn't pay attention to who the band was. A friend and I were on the bus one day and she was stunned that I didn't know who Eddie Vedder was; she made me listen to Vitalogy on the spot, and I was intrigued.
A couple of years later, I bought Ten, listened to it on repeat for months, and the rest is history.

TEN was the first thing i heard. After that nothing ever was the same again in my musical universe...
I remember I had to tell the guy in the record shop to start the cd again when I was through (you couldn't control the player yourself). I was so overwhelmed by that first run.

first time i heard pj was when i drove with my family in car ...sometimes pearl jam was "car music" - and the first album there i remember was no code (was transferred to tape for the car-radio xD)

and after that when i listened to the other albums i found at home, it was for sure TEN, which caught me

TEN!
I bought it on the releasedate. I've heard Alive on the radio and was completly Blown away :shock: - and still is!

Yield was my first album. My youth leader at the time introduced me to themin the church parking lot. Funny how that happened. Great guy introducing me to a great band...love the memories.

I'm a late comer when it comes to Pearl Jam. I only got into them after watching the Into the Wild film, the soundtrack caught my ear and I went and bought the CD the next day. This album really helped me get through a pretty tough adjustment to moving to a new city, holding down my first full time job, sitting in traffic jams for an hour both going to and coming home from work. I was feeling a bit like a zombie and thinking there must be more to life than this. So I'll be eternally grateful for this record and why I can't wait to see Eddie solo in Manchester on Saturday!

Anyway, from there I went and bought Rearview Mirror....and the rest is history

Ten...on the beach in Daytona, out in front of a friends place, he brings out a cassette to play in the car while we were trying to learn to surf in the freezing water. On a warm-up break, I went back to the car & it was playing....blew me away!

The song that was playing was Garden....still love that song.

--- TEN --- After watching PJ on Headbangers Ball on MTV Europe I fell in love with this band and their music and bought TEN the next day. There was that certain something no other band had before. Listening to TEN is like going back to my teenage years in a time capsule. Have seen PJ a cuple of times over the years, but the recent concerts in Berlin were simply amazing.

First album I heard by them was Ten, which was probably 4 or so years ago.

First album that really got me into the band was Backspacer. I saw it leaked for what ever reason decided to listen to it. It blew my mind.

When that album leaked it was a Friday and I cancelled my plans that night and gave BS like 10 listens

Firs album was Ten, I heard Even Flow when I was at Glenelg beach. I was on a ride called The Zipper and when I heard it, I thought it was amazing!! Went the next day to go get it from the local record shop.

For me, it was Ten in the fall of 91. Picked it up for Evenflow, but was hooked for life by Release.

Ten in 1994. Hooked since then...
