Pearl JamLive On Ten Legs
Monkeywrench Records [2011]
Fire Note Says: Pearl Jam can still generate an energetic live experience.
Album Review:
Live On Ten Legs collects tracks recorded between 2003 and 2010 and although not probably necessary given all of the Pearl Jam bootlegs out there this record does a nice job re-creating the
live experience through its 18 tracks. There are old staples you should expect, such as "State Of Love And Trust" and "Jeremy", there are tracks off their most recent record Backspacer [2009] and two surprise covers with Joe Strummer's "Arms Aloft" and Public Image Ltd's "Public Image". Pearl Jam's energetic live show has never been a question and Live On Ten Legs backs it up, as each and every song here is given 110% from the band. The songs all have more punch and it will surprise you how tracks from 1991 play and transition well with the 2009 material. Live On Ten Legs may not be for everyone but it is a great playlist and for fans, the cover tunes and Backspacer material should be a reason to pick this up.Key Tracks: "Arms Aloft", "Animal", "Spin The Black Circle"

Listening to the album you almost forget it has just about been 20 years since Ten was released!
