Editorial Review:
Part of the '90s Seattle grunge triumvirate completed by Nirvana and Soundgarden, Pearl Jam debuted with Ten, their most accessible, least self-conscious album. Over time, PJ's rep as a politically correct band just a little too above it all to prostitute its music on MTV has nearly superseded the music. But before that, they were a simply an in-your-face, in-your-head, loud, melodic rock band. And lead singer Eddie Vedder was known for his possessed stage presence and a primal growl that sounded like it required three vocal chords. The personal, narrative singles "Alive," "Jeremy," and "Even Flow" catapulted the reluctant band into the 10-million-plus-sales division. Subsequent albums are more intricate, subtle, thematically complex, and, in many ways, better than Ten. But the band may never repeat the stampede caused by this debut. --Beth Bessmer
Ten Reviews:
They wish they were Nickelback or Creed. 
2008-10-29 - Yeah yeah, Pearl Jam may have came out first...but Creed and Nickelback sound hell of a lot better. Plus, Pearl Jam.. what a dumb name! And the lyrics/vocals are a complete failure to the brilliance of modern rock heroes Chad Kroeger and Fred Durst.
BTW: 'Jeremy' is a terrible song!
6 Stars 
2008-10-23 - ok, might be showing my age but still listen to this on a regular basis.
May just be me, but... 
2008-10-15 - I don't knowif it was just my copy or what, but the 2007 vinyl reissue that I got has serious audio issues, like the left track cutting out intermittently on a frequent basis, seems like either i just got a bad copy or it was a cheap cash grab by Sony/Epic
Pearl Jam, Enough Said
2008-10-03 - Although, I am up to date with the ipod/mp3 era, I wanted to go back and buy some of the classic cd's I once owned. This is one of the best albums in my opinion.
A great album
2008-08-20 - Containing many of Pearl Jam's early hits and some less famous gems, Ten ranks among one of the best albums of all time and is probably the best to emerge from the decade of the 1990s.
