Great Album
Great music and great overall CD. If you like Pearl Jam, you'll love this album of live music filled with the haunting ambience of a full acoustic set. I can listen to this anytime and can't get enough.


EXCELLENT
I'm not a hard core fan but I like Pearl Jam a lot and was looking for some good live stuff. I absolutely love this CD. This is a nice change of pace with some good performances.


terrible set list
Only one goddamned TEN song!!! ONE! The rest is just radio friendly Pearl Sham at it's worst. This is a bag of garbage songs LIVE. God aweful set list.


Amazing & Heartfelt

I'm sure every Pearl Jam fan is aware that they have released many concert cds. There are some great, full reviews of this cd already so I'll keep my comments brief. What makes this one special for me is the intimacy of the setting. Benaroya Hall is a small venue and the acoustics are outstanding. Eddie's vocals are just terrific, full of warmth and expression. Many of the songs are acoustic and most of the selections showcase Pearl Jam's softer, more introspective side. Even so, the songs cover a wide range of moods, moving from the lovely and wistful "Thumbing my way" to the powerful, angry cover version of Dylan's "Masters of War. " Although a lot of my favorite PJ songs are not on this cd, in a way that is even a plus as it got me listening to some lesser known (but still great) songs. This performance was actually a benefit concert for an organization that helps at-risk kids in the Seattle area. I don't know if any of the money from sales of this cd go to that organization or not, but if it does, that would be just one more reason to buy this great, highly enjoyable cd.

A Pleasant Surprise
It is primarily an acoustic CD recorded live and it is amazing how this band rocks even when they are non-electric. This is the first Pearl Jam CD that I have purchased, having only listed to them on the radio for the past years. It also sounds much better than one would expect a live recording to sound. I have a new appreciation for just how talented this band is and highly recommend this CD. .
