So, I finally stopped traveling for a living. Finally unpacked some things. Finally got a decent entry level sound system.
Popped in Yield on CD and BOOM!!!!
I had been listening to all the boots all these years and forgot how GREAT this album sounds.
Some real treats were No Way, Push Me Pull Me and All those Yesterdays.
The sounds that came out of the speakers was just beautiful.
I highly recommend a listen on a good sound system!!!

Glad you enjoyed it so much, it's a great album!
Now I think I need to go find "Bugs" and listen to Vitalogy!
Thank you, glad to be home. Can't wait until my Vinyl set up is done too! I know, long time. I've been listening to all live boots though and you forget or at least I did, about the studios.
Thanks everyone. It's nice to be home...
I have to go back to this album (it is my all-time fave from PJ) once every few months or I get withdrawal.

If I am not rocking PJR or listening to MLB on XM Radio then I listen to my iPod and the retarded number of PJ Boots. However, the iPod goes into the house, by the pool, etc....and this means that many times I dont have it in my car. Forces me to crank up the discs in the changer and give a listen to the actual albums rather than everything on boot. I enjoy it -- and No Code / Yield are my two favorites to listen to out of that group even though they are not by #1 and #2 album overall.
I rarely listen to any of the other albums except LB any more, but these 6 get listened to a lot just because they went into my changer and I said I would not take them out until the car was done.

I blame the CD format for confusing me. I probably should be sent complimentary vinyl copies of those 3 records (No Code, Binaural, and Yield) that I confuse the songs off of all the time immediately by the 10 club.
Just curious - if it's been that long since you listened to Yield, how long has it been since you gave No Code a spin?

There are lots of things I have access to now that I'm not traveling all over the place.
I was listening to VS a few years ago and re-introduced it to my sister and her husband and they haven't listened to that in a long time and they both commented "man, I forgot how good this album was".
I'll post about No Code soon too, right now it's all about Yield.
Some other highlights:
The end of Brain Of J, that guitar explosion sound, yeah I love that.
Faithful, during the guitar solo you very subtly hear Vedder do a "whoo" and another "aighii". Stuff like that is just killer.
The string plucking of Given to fly in the beginning.
I swear I hear horns in All those Yesterdays and the harmonies are killer!
Was the music for the first dance at my wedding.
