What if I told you there was a version of Pearl Jam's Ten where you could audibly understand every word out of Eddie's mouth even if you didn't know the lyrics already...

@stueytheround They had a more recent producer remix and master the album for a deluxe edition. They were never happy with the original (record-label-forced production) and wanted it to better represent their sound. (Similar to the Beatles un-Spectoring Let It Be) It's the only version of Ten I listen to anymore, because the original always bothered me.

@stueytheround It's amazing what removing 40 layers of reverb can do to a song. Also a great example of what the role of mixer and producer can really do for or against a band's work.

I'd love to hear it.
The music is so good but the over production utterly ruined it for me.
Grunge is meant to be raw. Visceral.
