Great Show, I wish they used this one for the dvd instead. Bought it for the song Deep from Ten, it was one of the last times they played it. Wish they would bring it back, it is such a great song.

Ok, this is my first live Pearl Jam album, so I didn't know what to expect. Nevertheless, I was not disappointed in the results.

This is two discs and roughly 2 hrs. and 30 min. of live material, so you can take a break in-between if you want to.

Now, to the album itself; it is superb production-wise, with each track flowing to the next, aside from Disc 2 which has two encore breaks, one being a 7-minute chat between Eddie and the fans, and the other being a 50-second segway for 'Go'. The solos in the songs, the extended length of the songs, all make this one of the greatest live albums I've heard. So, if you need a 32-song sampler (that is affordable) for Pearl Jam, go with this, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

P.S. When they cover The Ramones' 'I Believe in Miracles', listen to Eddie calling Johnny Ramones house.

I've seen Pearl Jam three times in the past year. I also own approximately 7 or 8 of their live albums. Besides the live albums I have from the shows I've been to, (due to sentimental reasons) this is probably the best live album I have. (I have both shows in NY 7/8-7/9) They are both great. If you like Pearl Jam, or have liked PJ, check out this album (or get the 5 disc set of both days) and see that Pearl Jam is alive and kicking and give an incredible live show. You will not be disappointed.
