Pearl Jam have re-released "Ten" in several editions (including a massive box set thing that costs a couple hundred bucks and contains 2 CDs, a DVD, 3 LPs and memorabilia. The first CD is the re-mastered Ten, while the second offers Ten re-mixed plus six bonus tracks. The DVD has seven MTV unplugged tracks. The first LP is the original mix re-mastered for vinyl, while the second is a remix for vinyl, and the third, double vinyl, is the live "Drop In The Park" from September 1992 mixed by Brendan O'Brien. The pack also contains the following memorabilia: Bound re-creation of Eddie’s notebook including lyrics, doodles, photographs; Envelope containing a wealth of stunning merchandise; Postcards; Fabric sticker; Laminated backstage pass replica; Ticket replica; 6 x photos – 11” x 11” with written notes on.
Anyway, I'm listening to this album for the first time in years (the remastered version, which everybody seems to think is a huge step up... but I never minded the super-reverby muddiness of the orginal version), and it's great. Which song is your favorite?
