    Agreed!  That is beautiful, thanks for sharing.  I never knew that gem existed.

    Slow Lukin

    A beautiful song already translated to acoustic, and would love a studio version.
    It was quite a treat for all of us in attendance!

    Acoustic #1

    An awesome PJ acoustic demo.  Would be cool to get an expanded version of this on the new album.

    Save You

    If we are talking gems here, I mean wow, the gem of all gems, an acoustic Save You.
    Fuck me, what an incredible song.  :rock_on:

    Here's a great cover.  This guy has a bunch of awesome PJ covers.
    I wonder if he's a 10 Club member?

    Tremor Christ

    Cool song that I think would translate well to the acoustic album.
     B) 

    This guy gets it.  Nice cover.

    Ain’t Talkin’ ‘Bout Love / Panama

    Pearl Jam covering Van Halen on the acoustic album?!
    Yes please, sign me up!  Would be cool to see various acoustic covers.

    I Got ID

    Fact:  The world would be a better place if Pearl Jam blessed us with an acoustic version of this beautiful song.

    Faithful

    The intro drums are already pretty jazzy.  An acoustic version would be so smooth.  Maybe Josh can add some horns.

    Benaroya Hall 2

    I've added Benaroya Hall to the thread title and description.  You guys are right, that is a foundational acoustic album.  Would be great to get another live acoustic show and / or studio acoustic songs.  :rock_on:

    I bought lost dogs, live in Tokyo and Benaroya Hall as my first albums, needless to say they both share a special place in my heart. Back when you could walk into Walmart and find those albums. I kept hearing how great of a live band they were so I bought those albums on a whim to give the band a chance. At the time I didn’t really like their radio hits other than corduroy. The acoustic stuff really hooked me on the band first, lost dogs disc 2 and benaroya, and hearing release as the first song  of my deep dive into PJs live experience hooked immediately

    That is a nice collection of first Pearl Jam albums.  With those, you got a great introduction to the song catalog.  And I agree, acoustic Pearl Jam really is special.  Acoustic Pearl Jam always uplifts my mood.

    Jazz Odyssey / Last Exit

    Is that Jazz Odyssey being played in the intro to Last Exit?  I just now noticed that :lol:
    A jazzy acoustic Last Exit would sound incredible  B)

    Wreckage / Given To Fly

    Beautiful guitar riffs + powerful lyrics...  Wreckage translates wonderfully to acoustic.

    The live acoustic version of Given To Fly sounds amazing.  A studio recording of this version would be magical.

    In Hiding

    A masterpiece song.  It's simply incredible, and gets better as time passes.  I'm sure many fans would love to hear an acoustic version.

    This guy is a huge Pearl Jam fan, and very talented.  His covers are great, and he performs many Pearl Jam songs.  I recommend checking out his channel.

    I always kind of thought, with how hard rock a lot of PJ's catalog is, if due to age it got harder and harder to perform, instead of calling it a day, maybe they could do acoustic tours.  I'd love to see that.

    We are exactly on the same page  B)  And acoustic Pearl Jam sounds so so good.  Would love to see an acoustic tour.

    I don't know about an acoustic album. To do that it would have to be intentional, which can lead to it being forced. An acoustic tour? SIGN ME UP
