Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Mad world tribute is very nice -
I haven't heard this one, but I see bad reviews... so I wanted to recommend the Mad World string tribute to Pearl Jam. :) Have a nice day.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - With A Song Called "Flannel Rain" How Could You Go Wrong?
I remember watching Touring Band 2000 and thinking how cool it was that the band entered the stage to a string version of Baba by The Who... I thought, "I'd love to hear that kind of thing with PJ's music"... I bought this album despite what I thought was a really weak selection of songs... (nothing past Vitalogy and really odd choices)... and I'm seriously listening to it as I write... and it's comically bad...

If you've ever stopped and wondered why Stone doesn't flex his power and ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Poor Choices, Poor Performance
I, for one, have always been open to hearing PJ's songs in a different light. This effort, however, falls just short of mediocre. The record company that made this must be udner the impression that PJ stopped making recrds after 1994's Vitalogy. Consequently, much of the band's best work, including songs that would be suited to adaptation as string pieces like Parting Ways, Off He Goes and Present Tense. The performances are satisfactory, but definitely not worth the money. Please, if you want ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - 4 & 1/2 stars
I've been listening to this every so often (when I'm in the mood for something light and easy). When I ordered this, I new what to expect. As a PJ fan, I didn't expect it to be this huge orchestral rendition, or expect it to be like a Metallica tribute. It works perfectly.

Standouts on this album include Alive, Ederly Woman, Last Exit and Once. There isn't anything mind blowing here, but just a different take on Pearl Jam's music. For all the True PJ fans, I recommend this album. ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - This Tribute [stinks]
Well I bought this tribute CD because I am a big Pearl Jam fan and I wanted to hear what this was going to sound like. I was expecting it to be as good as the Metallica tribute by Apocalyptica (which was badass) but I was disapointed, I mean it just [stinks]. It sounds like a lot of noise with a violin imitating Vedder's vocal parts. Also, it turns out that this String Quartet recorded a whole bunch of tributes at the same time (REM, Rush, Alanis, Led Zeppelin) I guess they're just trying to jump on ... Read More
