I love Pearl Jam, and if you’ve never listened to this album I definitely recommend you give it a shot.

This is such a great album! So many great songs!!

This was the first CD I ever bought (along with Limp Bizkit, but that’s neither here nor there). I was a little apprehensive about picking up this version of the vinyl as I’ve heard the stories about the first couple of runs of this being subpar. Now in 2024, upon opening it I verified I had one of the 4th variants of it. I didn’t hear any of the pops or hisses people have issues with, other than what I would call normal vinyl noise. It’s not really advertised anywhere, but I did in fact receive the 180 gram audiophile version as well. I will say the remaster does indeed have a lot of the punch sucked out of it for the “master in vinyl” or whatever they want to call. That doesn’t mean it sounds anything less like what you’d expect of this album. The jacket is also a more heavy duty cardboard so this thing has a little more heft to it than a normal sleeve.

I never expected that a remixed version of "Ten" would ever be undertaken. After all, I was never aware of audible outcry from fans over the past 18 years demanding a re-mix of Pearl Jam's debut album. After reading an interview with Jeff Ament in which he expressed the same slight "annoyance" with the original mix that I have had all of these years, I was a surprised. I wasn't sure if anyone else had the same small gripe that I have had, and to find out one of the band members was thinking the same thing all these years was pretty neat.
My gripe is best is best exemplified during track #3 "Alive" at min sec.
At this point it is clear just how much reverb is on the mix. Reverb helps smooth and blend instruments and vocals together. This is not a bad thing in and of itself, but the overuse of reverb smoothed out the grit and edge of these songs in my opinion.
Now que up track # 3 "Alive" on the remixed version of the album at min sec. WOW!! I was blown away!! I never looked forward to this point of the song knowing that the revealing of this reverb was taking serious edge off of all of the songs on the CD. This was terribly apparent with the release of "VS" which has much more grit and edge to the sound. I had always wished "Ten" had the same grit and edge because the playing on the album clearly demonstrated that everyone was playing with intensity, but the edge was subdued. NO LONGER!! Now you can enjoy "Ten" the way I wish it had initially been released.
Now, I cannot fault Brendan O'Brian or anyone else for the original 1991 mix, after all we were coming out of the 80's which produced some serious overuse of effects, EQing, etc in order to make recordings sound "contemporary" at the time. Nowadays, many of these recordings sound very dated. Listen to Sinatra from the 40s, 50s or 60s and while the music may be cemented in a specific genre which 50 years later may sound "dated" to some (not so to me though because I love Sinatra), the recordings sound natural, no artificial flavors added!! I am so pleased to have this unexpected version of "Ten" which reveals the edge, grit and guts that the guys played with and which launched them to international stardom.
I send a hearty "Thank You" to Brendan O'Brian and the members of Pearl Jam for revisiting "Ten"!! Crank the volume up the "Ten" and ROCK HARD!!
PS: Yes, the compression for loudness-sake is unfortunate but to be expected in this day and age. I look forward to getting the LP version as well.
PPS: The DVD of the MTV Unplugged session is great to have!!

The first vinyl of Ten I received from Amazon was warped. Didn't make it through the first song without skipping. Replacement Vinyl is perfect.

Comprei o Ten do Pearl Jam em vinil.
Produto ótimo, com entrega em bom tempo e em perfeito estado.
Ten produziu dois singles de sucesso, "Alive" e "Jeremy", todos os quais tiveram acompanhamento de videoclipes (O vídeo de "Oceans" foi lançado apenas fora dos EUA). Os singles todos colocados nas paradas Mainstream Rock e Modern Rock. A canção "Black" alcançou o número três na parada Mainstream Rock, apesar de nunca ter sido lançada como single. O vídeo de "Alive" foi nomeado para o MTV Video Music Award por "Melhor Vídeo Alternativo" em 1992.[36] "Jeremy" se tornou uma das canções mais conhecidas do Pearl Jam, e recebeu nomeações para o Grammy Award de 1993 por "Melhor Canção de Rock" e por "Melhor Performance de Hard Rock".[37] O vídeo de "Jeremy", dirigido por Mark Pellington, foi colocado em alta rotação pela MTV e se tornou um grande sucesso, recebendo cinco nomeações no MTV Video Music Awards de 1993, dos quais venceu quatro, incluindo o "Vídeo do Ano" e "Melhor Vídeo de Grupo"

What to say? If you’re gonna buy this you probably already just how incredible it is. I’m not going to pretend that it’s any better on vinyl than on CD or digital. Because it’s awesome no matter how you get it. So, get it already!

Pearl Jams Ten ist und bleibt ein Album, das auch Jahrzehnte nach seiner Veröffentlichung immer noch mit beeindruckender Intensität und Energie begeistert. Es ist erstaunlich, wie gut dieses Album gealtert ist, die Songs klingen heute genauso frisch und kraftvoll wie damals, als ich sie in meiner Jugend das erste Mal gehört habe. Die rohe Emotion, die Eddie Vedders markante Stimme, die eindrucksvolle Instrumentierung und die tiefgründigen Texte schaffen eine einzigartige Atmosphäre, die einen auch heute noch in ihren Bann zieht.
Jeder Track auf Ten hat seinen eigenen Charakter, von der düsteren, energiegeladenen Eröffnung mit „Once“ bis hin zu den ikonischen „Alive“ und „Jeremy“, die nach wie vor mit einer Mischung aus Verzweiflung und Hoffnung durchdrungen sind. Die Authentizität, mit der Pearl Jam ihre eigenen Ängste und Kämpfe in die Musik fließen lassen, macht das Album zu einer emotionalen Reise, die sich auch nach Jahren noch nicht abgenutzt hat.
Für mich ist Ten nicht nur ein Stück Musikgeschichte, sondern eine Sammlung von Momenten, die eine ganze Generation begleitet haben. Es bleibt ein Album, das nicht nur musikalisch, sondern auch emotional weiterlebt. Es erinnert uns an die unbändige Energie und die zeitlose Kraft von Rockmusik, die immer wieder aufs Neue fesselt ein Klassiker, der nichts von seiner Faszination verloren hat.
