    Vitalogy for me. So distinctive. I remember seeing it in shops as a child, when I was too young to care about music or know who Pearl Jam were, and thinking how different and weird it looked compared to all the others.

    tough call. Hard to choose between Vitalogy, No Code and Yield. I also like Lightning Bolt, but not quite as good as the rest.

    No Code
    No Code for me. I might be weighing it more because I like the whole package.

    Vs is definitely a close second. As someone else said, a lot of memories. I really like how there are different images for the album & the cd and that it's fairly subtle. I also remember when I first got that "Eco-packaging" for the cd at the "Midnight Madness Sale"!

    Lightning Bolt is really cool too.

    Hell, they all are cool & have different special meanings!

    I think it's hilarious that not a single person has picked Ten yet.

    Put me down for Vs. as a lot of it had to do with the timing. When I saw that cover and then listened to the music I was blown away!

    Love the Binaural cover, doesn't hurt that it's such a kick ass album either. The Riot Act and Yield covers are very close behind.
    Anything you lose from being honest
    You never really had to begin with.


    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.

    Vitalogy is just classic. Clear favorite for me.

    Binaural
    Binaural.....I have always loved celestial imagery. I use it on all my screen savers.
    No Code is so creative.....I can look at it for hours and see new thing.
    I love the simplicity and serenity of Yield.
    Vitalogy makes me feel there is something mysterious and special inside.
    I appreciate the fact that Ten does not show their faces......I fell in love with the music not having a clue as to how good looking the boys are! :\">

    All of them contain great music so I can't separate the association of the two.
    However, I've never been a fan of the Backspacer art.

    I agree w/ the other guy in regards to his wife. We'd gotten married that May. Binaural is a close 2nd..Coincidentally, those are also my 2 favorite records.
