Album Notes
Pearl Jam: Eddie Vedder (vocals, guitar); Stone Gossard, Mike McCready (guitar); Jeff Ament (bass); Matt Cameron (drums).
Recorded live at Pennsylvania State College on May 3, 2003.
Moving on from the grunge era with little concern for the latest pop trends, Eddie Vedder and the boys have happily shed their fair-weather fans while keeping their ragged-glory sound remarkably consistent. During this formidable 2003 performance, staunch supporters of the band are treated to many of Pearl Jam's finest tunes, beginning with the slowly building "Release," and including barn-storming rockers such as "Animal," "Corduroy," "Even Flow," "Do the Evolution," "Last Exit," and "Porch." After more than a decade of live sets, the group knows how to mix things up, and they carefully intersperse the evening with loose groove-oriented jams and mellower fare such as "Small Town," "Nothingman," and "Black."
A frontman keenly aware of rock's history, Vedder also breaks out a slew of covers, including a charmingly informal solo acoustic versions of the Beatles' "You've Got to Hide Your Love Away," and John Lennon's "Gimme Some Truth," updated with modern-day political commentary. The band also dusts off the gorgeous Victoria Williams-penned "Crazy Mary," CCR's "Fortunate Son," and Neil Young's "Rockin' in the Free World." On this three-disc live set, Pearl Jam proves that, in their own way, they too are a classic rock band in the best possible sense.

      It's The Longest Pearl Jam Show Ever...But Not The Best Show Ever
    Review created: 01/29/04
    by: MattA75 -- a member of Epinions

    Pros:
    some great performances

    Cons:
    some lackluster performances, way too many hits, band sounds bored at times

    As the Pearl Jam tour bus rolled into State College, Pennsylvania on May 3, 2003, the band was no doubt in good spirits and looking forward to the 3 week break that would follow this show, the last of the first leg of their 2003 North American tour. Besides that, they had just played Buffalo, NY the night before and had played for just about 3 hours, with nearly every song being a perfect rendition. Perhaps the good mood translated into State College becoming the longest Pearl Jam show ever, or perhaps it was the crowd reaction, which some who attended said was positively awe-inspiring....
