More Pearl Jam reissues coming

The Ten reissue was successful enough that Pearl Jam will reissue Vs. and Vitalogy on March 29 with various studio outtakes, acoustic versions, and covers tacked on. 
These are the two albums that ousted PJ drummer Dave Abbruzzese played on, so congratulations to him on getting a larger-than-normal royalties check this year.

Pearl Jam reissue campaign begins

Pearl Jam are re-releasing their debut album Ten with a whole boatload of stuff, including out-takes, demo tracks, a remix of the entire album, and new artwork. It's all part of a series of reissues leading up to the band's (gulp) 20th anniversary in 2011.

We haven't really talked much about Pearl Jam on this site. I'm a fan, but not a huge one; you'll find Ten, Vs., Vitalogy, and the 2006 self-titled album in my collection, but that's it. I find them fascinating, though, because they could have been (and probably were) the biggest band in the world, capable of playing stadiums wherever they wanted, and they essentially threw it all away (conspiracy theorists will tell you intentionally).
