Lets Actually Listen Your Favorite Rarity!

[Hypnos]

In order to endure until the release of the new album, why don't we post our favorite demos, versions or live takes?

This is the demo of Daughter aka Brother from PJ20 (with a little digital retouching).

Love me some rarities, but if you change them, is it still fully Pearl Jam?

[Bammer]

I have a real problem with the idea that a song is a “rarity” nowadays considering everything is digital and you don’t have to buy a $65 import CD to get it.

Falling Down.

That song is better than any song they've written in 20 years.

No idea how you define a rarity after Lost Dogs and Spotify. Going by the “old rule book,” probably I’d say Leatherman, Bee Girl, BRY, Whale Song, and HWIC are all favorites.

By modern standards, I really like Only Cloud In the Sky and wish that became something.

Hearty agreement here.

I'm finding the instrumental unreleased stuff to be my favorite these days. Probably because they're more in-the-room sounding and you can hear the guys' natural instincts as musicians before much of the intellectual craft of arranging sets in.
