Happy 26th Yield

20 years, man life is racing past me! I watched Single Video Theory last night again. Such great tunes.

Yield, you don’t look a day over 20.

I refuse to acknowledge the media labelling you as “a return to form”. PJ was always in form. Yield was just the peak of that form.

Happy 20th Yield! You beautiful bastard!

My favourite album of all-time.
This record is my "Happy Place".

Posted my own little tribute on FB earlier today. 20 years has flown by!
"It was 20 years ago today that Pearl Jam released their best album and my favorite album of all time, Yield. So many memories tied to this album, and I’m honestly still making them.

I remember my dad (Dan Chojnacki) going to Best Buy during the day and bringing copies of the album to school for me and Stephen Figoni (it even came with a free 45 record of the Merkin Ball ep). It was like torture having to sit through the rest of the school day knowing it was sitting in my locker I heard. But once that final bell rang, nothing would ever be quite the same.

Over the years things keep connecting me back to this album. I’ve been lucky enough to see 61% of the album performed live. I’ve even given a sermon based on this album.

Looking back is fun, but I look forward to what else this album may teach me down the road. I sincerely hope you have an album or other piece of art that is as important to you as Yield is to me. It’s evolution, baby!"

A great album. Great in the car. Anyone remember the Yield nights on here from quite a few years ago? A bunch of people would hit play at the same time to synchronize listening and just talk about each track. It was fun.

Hi Jane!  Long time, no see.  #PJYIELD20 brought me back tonight.  Warming up with Rush' 2112 at the moment.

edit:  just realized that Jane's post was from 2 years ago.  LOL!  Carry on.

Like Zod said.  Yield did not have to grow on me

One of the best, most accessible albums. Easy to listen to without being shallow. Maybe one of my top listened to albums simply for the fact I don’t skip any songs

My fav tour for sure.

Loved the record.  This is not even close to their best tour.  The switch to Matt derailed things a bit and made it much of a greatest hits tour as they got their feet under them on the fly.

I actually thought that Matt not knowing the songs brought a new rawness that made things really fresh.  
Ed’s live voice was entering its prime.  Amazing tour
