    Where the love affair with Pearl Jam began for me when it was released a month before my 14th birthday.....

    Still my personal fave after all these years.....


    Given To Fly is the song that got me into them, it still moves me in the same way.....

    Giving this thread a friendly bump for 2008. A reminder that as we close in on YIELD's 10th birthday on 2/3/8, we will be posting details about YIELD Night VI. We are doing a YIELD night, right??

    I love Yield. My first PJ CD. the one that turned me into a die-hard Jammer.

    I always find it fascinating when people say YIELD is the album that got them into PJ. Had you never heard them before YIELD, or was there just something about YIELD that drew you in more than the earlier stuff?

    I was only 15 when Yield came out and raised by a single mom. I was poor as hell. But I always like PJ's singles on the radio.

    I honestly think I had about 7 or 8 tapes during my early-mid '90's, and their Appetite For Destruction, Rollings Band, AIC's Tripod self titled, and obvious Dookie & Smash, Green Day & Offspring were huge in '94-'95.

    Once I got a job, bought a CD player and BOOM!, Yield was the first one I devoted my hard earned money to. I think it's because their were the only "Grunge" band left. Nirvana was no more, Soundgarden just broke up, and AIC (well, Layne had issues).

    ...and I was addicted since.

    That's my Yield story. hehe :D

    I gotcha. Very cool. We all have our PJ stories. I tend to find them interesting, particularly if they involve YIELD. Especially because that means you got to experience No Code after YIELD, which really changes a lot of perceptions of both albums. Cool stuff.

    I think Jack Irons had a major influenced when he joined the band. I think in a way, he brought "maturity" and "diversity" to their music.

    A lot of people always put No Code & Yield side by side as a companion album, sort to speak. Yeah, so Jack brought a lot to the band than just the drum kit, you can see the difference in their lyrics and music.

    I routinely listen to No Code and YIELD back-to-back. It's my preferred way of listening to them. To me, they make perfect sense in tandem. Kind of a whole yin-yang thing.

    I couldn't agree more with your Jack Irons point, though. Whether it was intentional or not, when Jack was around there was a certain attention paid to details involving the songs themselves that sometimes is lacking on the other albums just a bit. For sure, an argument could be made for Jack being the most important member of PJ during his tenure.

    Yeah, I totally agree. It seems like after Jack left it became more of Eddie's band. More political, more punk, whereas, the first 5 was a Pearl Jam collaboration.

    Ten, Vs. Vitalogy = Musically guidance by Stone, Jeff & Mike.
    No Code & Yield = Inspirited by Jack Irons.
    post-Yield = Influenced by Eddie's politics & punk music.

    just my opinion. (I'd love to have an interview or chit chat with Eddie & the boys to see if my theories are correct) :D

    you may be right. but even though jack added great texture and detail during his time, i think pearl jam sound better live with dave or matt, preferably matt. then again, yield is pearl jam's best album, and no code is tied in second with binaural. IMO anyway.

    Yeah, there's no way it's coincidence that Jack Irons sat in the throne for PJ's 2 best albums. But I disagree with you about live performances. Matt is my least favorite live PJ drummer. I think he plays all the songs way to fast. I think Dave A was by far the best live drummer, and then Jack 2nd.

    It would be interesting to see what another album with Jack would yield. Sometimes you get stuck in a rut, then someone brings new ideas into the fold and you create something unique.

    I think the word that comes to mind to describe the songs PJ made with MJI is 'focused'. Those 2 albums are so freaking focused. To me, that's why they stick so well with me. It makes them easier to connect to as a whole album. I have to believe that a new album with MJI back would bring back that focus again.

    So, it's kind of like your dad coming home and asking, "Why the hell isn't the house clean" and you say, "Because I was up stairs playing video games".

    Clean house damn it.
