Now Available ‘Live On Ten Legs’ Is Pearl Jam’s Commemoration Of Two Decades Making Music History
‘Live on Ten Legs’, Pearl Jam’s new album, amassing tracks from their 2003-2010 world tours was released back in Januray. The release of the record begins the twentieth anniversary of the ensamble and it will be succeeded by re-releases of ‘Vs.’ and ‘Vitalogy’, the band’s second and third albums consecutively in, accessable on commemorative vinyl records on April 12th. ‘Pearl Jam Twenty’ a documentary by Cameron Crowe, accompanied by by a 250 page book commemorating the band’s past will also see release this autumn. Confirming that even after twenty years, Pearl Jam is still thriving, there is also a 20th anniversary weekend bash in mind for this summer.
Hailing from Seattle, Washington, Pearl Jam released their debut album, ‘Ten’ back in 1991 and though they didn’t mark immediate praise, the record reached number two on the Billboard 200 chart in 1992 with three hit singles in ‘Alive’, ‘Even Flow’, and ‘Jeremy’. According to Rolling Stone Magazine, the group "spent much of the past decade deliberately tearing apart their own fame," taking a pivotal place in the grunge movement of the early 1990s and was criticized for refusing to comply with industry standards. Having sold almost ten million copies, ‘Ten’ is still the group’s most successful record, and was instrumental in generalizing alternative rock.
Pearl Jam is no stranger to controversy, and frontman, Eddie Vedder has been known to be very outspoken; openly protesting former President George W. Bush, BP, and even Ticketmaster. Regarding a number a variety of causes Pearl Jam has also been active as well, including awareness of Crohn’s Disease (which Mike McCready, the ensamble’s lead guitarist suffers from), the pro-choice movement, and enforces a carbon neutral policy; a campaign to reduce carbon emissions into the atmosphere.
For ‘Live on Ten Legs’ the follow-up to their platinum 1998 live North American tour release, ‘Live on Two Legs’, Brett Eliason, the band’s longtime engineer, has taken 18 tracks from their various world tours between 2003-2010 and remixed or remastered them for their twentieth anniversary. The album features classics like ‘Alive’ and ‘Yellow Ledbetter’ and later hits like ‘The Fixer’. There is a CD, four mini-poster reprints from classic shows, five live photo prints and a tour laminate included on the deluxe double rock vinyl.
going back to the studio this April to start recording their next album, Pearl Jam is still ‘Alive’ and well after twenty years. The group’s bassist, Jeff Ament, told Billboard, “We did a whole bunch of demos and everybody’s got a disc of 25 (songs) right now. April will be the time where we get together and learn to play all these demos and figure out which 12-15 of them float to the top. Hopefully we can get something done this year. There’s been so much focus on the past that I think all of us are really excited to make a new record and have something to look forward to because we’ve been digging in the boxes in our basement a lot the last year or so.”
