 Now THIS Is Deluxe Reissues SHOULD Be About! March 28, 2009

Remaster the original 1991 album to perfection,add a second disc which features a great 2008 Brendan O'Brein remix that strips away the dated reverb of the original mix and makes Eddie Vedder's vocals clearer and more upfront,gives the guitars additional bite and edge and adds kick and punch to the bass and drums.Include outtakes and demos,"Brother" being the standout with the slowed-down "State Of Love And Trust" being a close second.Contain all of the 1992 "MTV Unplugged" performance (availble for the first time on DVD)and compliment it with stellar picture and sound quality.(BTW, all discs were mastered by the talented Bob Ludwig.)Finish off with a nostalgic,colorful booklet and you've got a great,entertaining package worth its high price.Bravo!
Revisiting an Absolute Classic March 24, 2009

To be perfectly honest, I've never had a problem with the production of Pearl Jam's classic debut album. It's always been a little slicker than the albums that followed, but I feel like it gave the cd its own unique texture within their catalog. But, for years, the members of Pearl Jam indicated they'd like to revisit the album, and now they have. The original cd (included here) sounds great. The "redux cd" sounds great. Brendan O'Brien's production is immediate and well-balanced. He's a great producer, and he's got a great feel for Pearl Jam, having worked with them numerous times. So, while I don't know that I'd describe it as "better" or "worse," it's another take on how the album should sound. So now there are two versions of one of the best albums of the 90s (or any decade). Cool.
Better still is the addition of extra tracks from that era and the fantastic MTV Unplugged performance on dvd.
The important thing to note is that this is a well-put-together and well-considered reissue, not just some cash-in. As a long-time fan, I'm really happy to have a new way to revisit this masterpiece.

Oldtimers know that Pearl Jam would never rip off their fans with unnecessary reissues, so rest assured that this package offers special goodies to its intended audience - hardcore fans with a collector's mindset. If you have a few hundred of the official bootlegs then you're in the market for the upcoming wave of reissues of the original albums. Here the immortal TEN definitely gets the deluxe treatment.
The item that excited me the most here is the DVD of PJ's memorable 1992 appearance on MTV Unplugged, in which the longer-haired, better-dressed, and much moodier young PJ brought down the house. Last I saw this it was on a grainy and distorted old VHS tape a whole mess of years ago. Recall that TEN didn't become truly huge until nearly a year after it was released, and was still on the upswing at the time of the broadcast. The MTV Unplugged show is a unique historical memento showing a soon-to-be-enormous band at a crucial moment, and their talent and passion were already roaring out of the gate.
The other item of interest here is the new remixed version of TEN by later PJ producer Brendan O'Brien. The reason TEN has always sounded different than all the later albums is the reverb-heavy original mix from producer Rick Parashar, which sounded a bit murky but gave the album the huge anthemic sound that appealed to the masses. I agree with many fans that you shouldn't mess with history, and if it ain't broke don't fix it. It would help if everyone viewed the TEN remix not as a replacement for the original, but as a variation. O'Brien's remix removes a lot of unnecessary sludge, which brings the contributions of Mike McCready and Jeff Ament into sharper relief and makes Eddie Vedder sound more human. The sound is crisper overall and the remix is mostly pretty subtle. The only truly substantive changes I can detect are in "Once," "Why Go," and "Porch" which sound less metallic and more garage-y. I'm not sure if those songs actually sound better in the new remix, but they are cleaner.
As for the six leftovers added to the remix CD, there is some historical interest to be found. "Brother" (with vocals - an instrumental version appeared on the Lost Dogs compilation) and "Just a Girl" are intriguing for historically-minded PJ fans. There's a little less interest in early demo versions of the great soundtrack items "Breath and a Scream" (later re-titled "Breath") and "State of Love and Trust." The final versions of those songs are better. And you can avoid the cheeky studio jams "2,000 Mile Blues" and "Evil Little Goat" - serious fanatics already know about PJ's improv habits from all of those collectible bootlegs.
But in the end, the true greatness of this reissue is the love that PJ have for their fans. This may or may not be better than the original, but it's surely more of an awesome thing. [~doomsdayer520~]
Worth it for the Unplugged Performance Alone April 3, 2009

Great re-issue of possibly the greatest album from the 90's. The remix CD is great, but the bonus DVD of the live MTV Unplugged is worth the price of the package alone - catching the band at their heyday back when there was only one MTV station still and they played music some of the time. Great 5.1 mix on the show too.
Awesome reissue March 26, 2009

Worth it for the long overdue MTV Unplugged DVD alone, not to mention a number of great outtakes from the recording of their first album. The alternate versions of the two 'singles' soundtrack songs are amazing, as is the very underrated 'Brother.' A great collection.
