    This is totally weird. First he says "Original press, used for comparison", then he goes on to say it's an unofficial reissue. The fb page he is mentioning looks interesting too...

  • Just saw Yield (€20) and Avocado (€40) here in a record store in The Netherlands... Clearly bootlegs.

    Wonder if I will get to see these on sale @ tomorrow's Halifax Record Fair.

    I've seen them on Discogs now.
    Avocado for about 40 euros, Yeild is 25. Shipping is pricey to NA but should be cheaper the other side of the pond.

    Pearl Jam - Yield (1x white bootleg vinyl) .. http://www.discogs.com/marketplace?release_id=5630244&ev=rb

    Pearl Jam - Self Titled (2x blue bootleg vinyl) .. http://www.discogs.com/marketplace?release_id=5630169&ev=rb

    Shipping is pretty expensive to ship to Canada. D'oh!

    Yeah but if it's decent quality you can't beat it. Still weird and would rather see official reissue but till that happens I am curious.

    If it's sourced is said to be straight from CD, the price shouldn't be more then the official "original" vinyl release.

    Agreed. Still curious. I want to see one and play it.

    Must have gotten in trouble. There's a new listing and only in the detailed descript does it mention that it's a blue 'reissue', nowhere in the headline does it mention it's a bootleg copy and there's no pics of the blue vinyl shown.

    Know what would sell me on a bootleg? Turning a double LP into a single. I'd love to have Binaural, riot act, and avocado on just one disc.

    My sister is on vacation in Europe. Found these in a record shop in Germany. Grabbed me a copy of each says they don't look bad but she isn't a PJ freak like me so didn't really know what to look for. I should have them in a week or two

    I got one of the Avos on discogs (cannot afford a real one and if it sounds as good as people say, then it is better than nothing). I will give some feedback once it is here.
