The exceptionally talented Rock group Pearl Jam have released their CD entitled Pearl Jam. I am very confident and happy to announce that I believe Pearl Jam fans, and Rock fans alike will be pleased with this one. With the release of Pearl Jam their artistic excellence is on full display as they have once again delivered a brilliant collection of tracks that could very well be their best work to date.

Pearl Jam have been a heavy hitters in the Rock genre for quite some time now and Pearl Jam is an excellent illustration as to why.

These days it's a very rare CD on which every single song is good or better than the one before it. This CD is certainly one of those rare CDs.

The CD kicks off with an outstanding track, Life Wasted, that I anticipate will be heard on radio stations everywhere, and deservedly so. It really is a very nice track.

One of the refreshingly nice things about this CD is the way all of the participating artists seem to be really enjoying themselves. Combine that with the overall presentation and you've got one of Pearl Jam most impressive releases ever.

I'm of the opinion that Pearl Jam is certainly some of this groups best work in a few years. A totally enjoyable CD and an outstanding release. What I call must have music. I give it two thumbs up because it's a collection that even the casual Rock fan can appreciate and enjoy.

While this entire CD is really very good some of my favorites are track 2 - World Wide Suicide, track 5 - Marker In The Sand, and track 10 - Wasted Reprise

My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 12 - Army Reserve. This is a great track!
