An absolute classic. Firing up philly 2 and the studio versions today.

A friend of mine had seen them on the Chili Peppers tour, he was raving about this new band. I got Ten the week it came out... Wow, what an amazing first album.

My first copy of TEN. I was an intern at Epic Records in 91 and my first job was to send the 3 song cassette to the Mother Love Bone fan club

A special album by a special band

Sorry man. Actually this is what that is. Not a label guy:

notes:

REEENK ROINK (Taken from “Reeeink Roink – It’s OK to Mess Up“, 2005) – Because of the “Alive” single’s liner notes, fans have long guessed that “Reeenk Roink” was a potential band name, but now we can say for sure that that’s not true. PJ fan Scott Logsden let us know that he recently lucked out and got his Reeenk Roink signed by Jeff Ament. Scott’s sleeve already contained the standard “Pearl Jam — TEN — REEENK ROINK” writing, but in addition to an autograph, Jeff added an asterisk next to “Reeenk Roink” and wrote “it’s ok to mess up.” When asked, Ament explained that back when PJ were recording Ten, when someone messed up, everyone else in the band would look at the person and make a funny face and say “reeenk roink!” It’s hard to explain in print, but what Jeff means is that “reeenk roink” is a sound spelled out, an onomatopoeia: like the sound on a game show when someone gets something wrong, or the two-tone error noise your computer might make. When they got the test discs from the record company, which lacked the name of their album and didn’t even have the band’s name printed on them, Jeff and Ed decided to write that phrase on there for when they gave them to people.

Got that from the twofeethick site. So it actually might be their writing.

Long time ago. Forget things
