    1st one I listened to was Vs...I remember buying that in highschool, still have it and it has a pre-euro pricetag on it, so must've been a while ago ;) I know I loved a few songs right away (elderly woman, leash, go, daughter) but I somehow forgot about that record along the way. :fp:

    the one that really got me into them was not an actual album, but more of a collection of boots and live videos. but I listened to no code a lot while driving around yosemite national park by myself last year, really connected with that record.

    I think many many people put a "+1" here. That's great.

  • Ten was the first album I bought from Pearl Jam. I will admit that it took me awhile to get used to their music. But it was their greatest hits album, Rearviewmirror that really and finally got me interested in PJ.

    Ten. I was in sixth grade. I sat in my bedroom and listened to it beginning to end.

    I got it because I liked Jeremy (didn't know it was Jeremy at the time). I just hit play and realized every song was kickass. Been hooked ever since.

    Ten.

    I remember seeing Alive on MTV and digging it. Evenflow seemed to be played to death. I remember commenting to my brother on how I was sick of that song. Watched Ed and Mike on Headbangers Ball live! Got the CD sometime around then. Have gotten every one since on release day aside from LOTL. I think Vs. turned me into a psycho fan from the first listen. Was pretty blown away watching them and Neil at the MTV awards about a month before that album came out.

    Ten.
    I remember sitting on my bed with headphones on listening to it over and over again in order to learn the words.
    Pretty sure this is the only album I have EVER done that with.

    Then I remember my Dad taking my buddy and I to the store the day Vs. came out. This was probably my most anticipated album of all time. We both bought it and went home and cranked it up. It was so angry! Great stuff.

    One full listen to Ten (was just what the doctor ordered for a confused 15 year old at the time) in 2008 and I have been hooked since :)
