    So I have a friend who has basically only heard Vitalogy and only really knows the song Corduroy. So I told her I'd make her a CD with some Pearl Jam songs. So this is what I've come up with:

    Small town
    Given to Fly
    Do the Evolution
    Drifting
    Present Tense
    Wash
    Black
    Light Years
    Leash
    Yellow Ledbetter
    SOLAT
    Soon Forget
    Life Wasted
    Gone
    Thumbing my Way
    Last Kiss (I know it's kinda a really over played song but I think it has a lot of appeal)
    Love Boat Captain
    Breakerfall
    Marker in the Sand
    Wishlist
    Hail Hail

    Anything I missed that should put on there? I'm not even sure if I can fit all those songs on 1 CD if not which ones should I cut? Anyway thanks in advance for the suggestions!



    immortality!
    Could'nt agree more " immortality" is PJ their best in my opinion. i played that song soo many times- its just unbeliveable and to hear ed play it live is just ... well fuckin unreal !!!!!!!

    Below is a good list for your female friend. I don't know if she is into hard rock but you went a little too hard rock imo, I'll assume she is into softer stuff like most chicks.


    1. All Those Yesterdays
    2. Last Kiss
    3. Daughter
    4. Black
    5. Wishlist
    6. Small Town
    7. Jeremy
    8. Dissident
    9. Betterman
    10. Nothingman
    11. Thin Air
    12. Soon Forget
    13. Release
    14. You Are
    15. Oceans
    16. Yellow Ledbetter
    Hidden Track: Golden State

    There, that should get you laid.

    PS: I got a few not-so-serious music fans into PJ with a similiar CD. They all loved it...

    do you remember allthoseyesterdays.net? first time i got plugged into the matrix (interweb) that was my first site that i ever downloaded a full length pearl jam show, in mp3 format. a mansfield 98 show. year's before i would pay 35 to 70 bucks CDN for bootleg'd cds; those were fun times. from then on, i tried to downloaded, trade, collect every single known pearl jam show i could find. in all formats. mp3's, shn's, wav's, flacs etc.. had to collect them all. i know there are tons & tons out there, that's not on my db.etree.org list that are nft etc.. but someday, i hope pearl jam goes the route as neil young did, and release each year (pre '00 official bootlegs), their complete live works .. without any cuts (aka rockin' in the free world mtv unplugged)!

    doesn't include the latest album but the Rearviewmirror: Greatest Hits works wonders for me, I usually have it on in the car 8-)

    Nice choices.

    Maybe exclude Marker in the Sand, Breakerfall, Soon Forget, and Drifting.

    Porch, Release, and Breath would be good additions.
