    Vitalogy, was released on vinyl first,at the end of November,1994.CD 2 weeks later.I remember that.

    Most of it was already recorded though.Dave Abbruzzese was fired in August 1st,1994.All his parts were done sometime in the spring.Im not sure why there was such a delay in the release.

    Maybe,Corduroy wasnt finished in April 1994.Not sure.


    Vitalogy - that is one album I'd love to own on vinyl. Mainly because of 'Spin the Black Circle'

    The only part that wasn't recorded was 'Stupid Mop'. Jack Irons done some of the music for that and played the drums on it. I believe that was recorded in September/October. Abbruzzese done the rest of the album. No one really knows why they left Vitalogy so long, even though most of it was complete. People say that it could have been because of the Ticketmaster boycott. Maybe they never played Corduroy because they wanted it left exclusive and fresh? Ah well, we'll never know unless they tell us.
  2. ... and finally the sweet PJ20 blu-ray boxset has arrived ...





  3. Nice.I actually got shut out.It was sold out BEFORE it even went on sale.I cant remember an item being sold out before it hits the streets......

    When it dies down, maybe ebay will have it for less than a car payment....LOL


  4. ...adn you hadn't seen the film yet, have you?

    You're in for a MEGA-treat.
  5. So it seems I missed out on a big Pearl Jam discussion today. A few more weeks like this and this will pass the Coldplay topic.

    I just want to say I agree with someone who posted about Vitology a few pages back. This might be the album of any artists that I am most split on. It has some of my all time favorite PJ songs, like Corduroy, Better Man, Immortality, and Nothingman, and yet it also has some of my least favore songs in thier catalog. I really don't know if I can listen to Stupidmop again.
  6. I don't think any of us think you need to listen to that song or "Bugs" for that matter. I never listen to them either.

    I think the 10 "normal" songs on the album are all solid, with "Satan's Bed" being the weakest of them. I'd go something like:

    1. Corduroy
    2. Better Man
    3. Not for You
    4. Immortality
    5. Last Exit
    6. Spin the Black Circle
    7. Nothingman
    8. Whipping
    9. Tremor Christ
    10. Satan's Bed
  7. One of the interesting things about Vitalogy that I am still reminded of everytime I looks through my CD's is how original the sleeve was when the album first came out. Up until then, all my CD's were in jewel cases and Vitalogy was not. They probably weren't the first artists to do this but they were the first ones that had CD's in my collection. If only they could have rotated the orientation of the sleeve by 90 degrees. It is too tall but not deep enough to be in-line with the rest of my discs. Boo hoo for me.

    The versions of the songs off vitalogy are a little different. Some minOr lyric changed. Both are definitive live shows. Especially Atlanta


    After closer inspection, the Atlanta gig is indeed chalk full of goodness. 10 songs from Ten, 11 songs from Vs, and many more...

    Up until today really, I have been focusing on the official bootlegs started in 2000 and have been somewhat ignoring the previous decade. So, what are the (let's keep it under) ten essential 1990's shows to have? I now have:

    Moore Theatre, Seattle 1992
    Fox Theatre, Atlanta 1994
    Orpheum, Boston 1994
    Soldier Field, Chicago 1995
    Berlin, 1996
    Melbourne, 1998
    Seattle, 1998

    Am I missing anything astounding?
  9. Drop in the Park - Seattle 92
    Off Ramp in Seattle 90 still as Mookie Blaylock .. amazing document
    will think of other must-have
