What Pearl Jam album have you listened to the most and which one have you listened to the least? (estimate) About how many times do you think you've listened to them? (again, make an estimate)

I'm especially curious as to how many listens it takes for stip to do his guided tours.

Really?

Si, senor.

How many different threads do we need for this?

Favorite album ≠ most listened to album

I know, but they all delve into the same discussion. Why not just have one thread where we talk about the albums in relation to each other?

Probably Ten. No COde gets the most plays for me for the last decade or so, but i listened to Ten A LOT. A LOT LOT. Yield close behind, though.

Backspacer or ST get the least. but of the albums that i actually like but dont listen to much, Binaural or Vitalogy dont get played as much for some reason. Have to be in the right mood for those.

I was on a big Riot Act kick for awhile, it caught up a little. And Vs is in the middle.

was that thorough enough?

are you new to RM?

It just seems like these threads have been popping up a lot lately.

they have




To answer your question when I'm writing up those threads I'll listen to the album once before I start to do it, and then listen to the particular song I'm writing about on repeat while I'm writing about it. Those posts usually take between 20-40 minutes to write.

Most - Ten easily.

Least - Avocado

Do any of you think you've listened to Ten over 200 times?

That's like 10-12 times a year on average since i've had it...absolutely.

Most? Probably No Code.

Least? Either S/T or Ten, I suspect.

closer to 2000.

VERY true.

No Code and Vitalogy are probably my faves, but I listen to them less than S/T and Backspacer (both of which are
in my middle tier of PJ albums).

No Code in particular; love that record to pieces, but listen to it less than any others. It's a deep experience, can't take
that road every day, every week, or even every month. But it's so damn good when I do take that road.

Least is easy: Backspacer. I think Avocado is much worse but at least back then I was still trying to make myself like it, so I listened to it a fair amount of times. I didn't bother as much for BS. My last.fm says 2 times + I know I heard it a couple more times in the car, that's it.

Most is harder. When I only had Ten in the early 90's I listened the shit out of it, but then again so did I with everything up to Riot Act. It's either Ten, Vitalogy, Yield or Binaural. Last.fm says Binaural but that's since 2007 only so it doesn't mean anything.

Most: Yield, I guess mostly because that's when I got into them

Least: Backspacer, however the fact that pearl jam wasn't as much in my sphere of music I'm listening to had a lot to do with that

Probably Vs.

Oh wait, nevermind.
