I really live Live Rust and also Prairie Wind. Just curious what your favorites were?
I’ve seen Pearl Jam 25 times, Eddie Vedder 9 times, and Brad once.

    Sleeps with angels is a criminally underrated album. It captures what everyone was feeling in the days and months after Kurts death.

    After the Gold Rush is flawless.

    Harvest is a great low key record.

    Greendale is a album that is confusing and long as hell, but its Neil's call to arms for our generation.

    I was actually listening to Zuma while I posted my question for y'all. It's a good album.

    "I try my best to chug, stomp, weep, whisper, moan, wheeze, scat, blurt, rage, whine, and seduce. With my voice I can sound like a girl, the boogieman, a Theremin, a cherry bomb, a clown, a doctor, a murderer. I can be tribal. Ironic. Or disturbed. My voice is really my instrument."

    On the Beach and Zuma are my two favorites. I find myself listening to Zuma a lot more though... it's more of an everyday listen when compared to On the Beach which really requires you to be in a certain somber mood to fully appreciate it.

    Most NY albums have at least a couple amazing songs, but they usually have their fair share of duds also. Zuma and On the Beach are consistently amazing.
