307.0. "PEARL JAM" by KBOMFG::TANNER (We're one, but we're not the same) Wed Oct 14 1992 10:38

   Has anybody out there heard Pearl Jams first album "Ten"??????

It gets my album of the year, the tracks alive, even flow, jeremy, and black are
excellent and the rest of the tracks aint bad either. Hasn't the lead singer got
an amazing voice???? I just hope that overnight success doesn't tear them apart.

   "Ten" has to be one of the best debut albums ever....

    I wouldn't consider it overnight success since they've all be in
    different bands prior to their current incarnation.  They've all been
    slogging away since about '85 - '86.  Yes, Eddie Vedder has a great
    voice, a very distinctive style.  Check out their Unplugged MTV half
    hour for an incredible version of "Black".

    Yes, this is a GREAT disc. Every song is cool. Does anyone know
    if they tour at all? I would like to see them. Not having cable
    or MTV, I don't get to see many videos. Have they done any? Are
    there any concert vids of their's out? Black is my favorite off 
    the disc...my .02$ too...

307.4ABACUS::SCHREIBER_GRelax...homebrew picks up on bad karmaThu Mar 18 1993 15:483
    According to my daughter they're supposed to come to UNH this
    summer. UNH= university of new hampshire. she was at lollapalooza
    too...said they were awesome
307.5REFINE::BARKERNothing is true...Everything is permittedFri Mar 19 1993 13:1410
    They have videos out for "Alive", "Even Flow", "Black", and "Jeremy",
    so far that I have seen.  I agree, not a bad song on the disc, so I
    won't try to choose a favorite.  I suspect they're pretty much always
    touring.  I haven't seen them around Boston since Lolapallooza '92, but
    I know they were in NYC for New Year's eve.  If I had to guess, I might
    say they'd be working on a new album, but who knows??  If you can get
    to see them, GO!!  No matter what.  One of the best, most high
    intensity shows I've seen.

307.6No 2!!!!!!!!KBOMFG::TANNERCalifornian Girls are more fun!!!!!Thu Apr 01 1993 13:5912

      I was over in the states for most of March, and I read an article in some
magazine that the lads were working on their second album. They also toured
Europe last year, I didn't go see them... I had no idea at the time who they
were and what kind of music they played. Iam sure I'll get to see them soon, but
first up its the Boss in Munich May 14th followed by U2 June 4th same place just
outdoors......

                                                        all the best.....

307.7NRSTA2::CLARKlive for todayFri Sep 03 1993 17:052
So, um, what did people think of Eddie Vedder's performance last
night on the MTV music awards?
307.8Old enough to be Eddie's father too...SMURF::JOHNFFri Sep 03 1993 18:066
    Don't know about Eddie Vedder, but Neil Young sure gave
    them a lesson in how to play guitar.  Man, did he blow those
    guys away when he joined them on stage!  Highlight of the nigt
    for me!!

307.10Eddie was about a "3"WBC::DEADYBig Time SensualitySat Sep 04 1993 15:3613
    Eddie did seem "out of it" during the performances. I thought I saw
    him grab a bottle after the Neil Young set. During the post show on
    MTV, Eddie made a complete ass of himself (IMHO), it even appeared as
    thought his band mates were embarrased for him.
    	Before I get jumped on I LIKE Pearl Jam, and do not have an axe
    to grind with him or his behavior, to each their own. I also thought
    MTV's Kurt Loder (sp), and the whole post-show was a waste, again 
    nothing against MTV, to each their own. 
	I did not see the whole show, however, I did tape it. Neil Young 
    did put on a great show (IMHO), he really seemed like he was having 
    a GREAT time, unlike some of the other performers.

307.11Pearl Jam / DoorsWBC::DEADYeverything's fine... just fine...Sat Oct 23 1993 12:337
    Is Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder the 90's version of Jim Morrison? Both
    are/were rather unique lyrists. IMHO. Both are/were members of well
    known bands, also rather good bands -- again IMHO. And Eddie seems
    to be getting similar press treatment to what Morrison received. And
    lastly they seem to have similar "characters" on and off stage.

307.12Pearl Jam's cool!!JUPITR::OCONNORSSat Oct 23 1993 16:225
    
     Eddie Vedder seems to be on that same "death trip" that Morrison
    was on....

307.14"On the cover of the Rolling... TIME?"AIMHI::KERRCaught In The CrossfireMon Oct 25 1993 13:177
    
    Eddie is on the cover of Time magazine this week (I don't think he's
    real comfortable with that given some of his quotes in the article).
    The article is quite good, sheds a lot of light on the so-called
    alternative rock movement (But, it's still rock and roll to me).

    I know someone who is looking for a ticket to the show at the Boston
    Garden on Sunday.  Does anybody have an extra they'd like to sell, or
    know of anybody who might?

         I think the 10 lp is definately a better album, but I like the
     2nd effort a lot too. It's heavy, with a taste of funk. I think my
     fave off that album is Rats. Cool bass...Actualy, a lot of cool
     bass...  Just my o..

    >     fave off that album is Rats. Cool bass...
    
    Yet pretty derivative of more than a few other tunes.
    
    I think Vs. is a lot more pop than 10.  In the grunge war, I had to
    give Pearl Jam the nod over Nirvana with "Ten," but Nirvana kept more
    with the program on the next releases.
    
    I guess I like Rearview Mirror best, but I wish Crazy Mary was on
    VS.
