Although it topped the pop charts and sold 5 million copies, Pearl Jam's stunning second album is unknown to much of the rock audience. Recoiling from the octopus-like grasp of the music industry, the group refused to support VS. with either videos, singles or a major tour, and rock radio was given just two acoustic-powered ballads, "Daughter" and "Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small Town," as so-called emphasis tracks.
The former was about a sexually abused young girl promising to rise above her past, the latter about a forgotten woman with nothing but long gone memories. The rest of the album rocked significantly harder--harder and more raw, in fact, than anything on TEN--and zoomed in on a cusp between those two stories, on moments when outlaws, outcasts, the dispossessed and the disaffected were being called to political judgment. The woman sheltering a "Dissident" gives in and turns him over to the police. But the abused subjects of "Go" and "Rearviewmirror"--two of the album's most musically heroic songs--manage to turn the tables and get away.
There was a suffocating bleakness to much of VS. (in "Rats," humans are compared most unfavorably to those animals) that would have dragged down a lesser rock band. But singer Eddie Vedder had the support of one of the most transcendent of all classic-rock bands, with a supple rhythm section and two creatively complicated guitarists equally at home with the thrashy pulse of "Go," the delicate prettiness of "Elderly Woman..." (check out the layered, stereo guitar work there) and the new wave angularity of a song like "Glorified G." It was serious, but also serious rock and roll.

Editorial reviews

Shipping and handling will be $4.00 within the U.S. sShipping internationally will cost $14.00.

A word or two about shipping and handling – My shipping and handling charge is meant to cover several things. The shipping part is easy – that is the cost the Post Office charges. Handling may include packaging costs, fees, and other expenses a seller needs to cover. As a buyer, you are expected to pay these costs, so you owe it to yourself to understand them. I DO NOT MAKE MONEY ON SHIPPING AND HANDLING, BUT YOU ARE EXPECTED TO COVER THESE COSTS! Please do not get angry when your shipping and handling charge seems to be more than the cost to ship the item – that is the way it works.
For shipping outside the United States, I will require shipping confirmation. It will cost a little bit more, bu this will protect you as well as me during shipping. All shipping outside the United States will be calculated after the auction has ended. As stated above, I do not make money on shipping, but only want to recoup my cost.
Positive feedback will always be left for you after your payment is received. I hope you will do the same for me after you receive your item.
I expect to receive your payment no more than 7 days after the auction ends. If you are mailing your payment, please email me to let me know.
Please don't bid unless you intend to honor your commitment.

I have just begun to start selling all my old metal t-shirts, posters, CD's, cassettes, vinyl, buttons and magazines.They are extremely tough for me to part with as I have had most of these items for 20+ years. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did.

MANY RARE ITEMS TO COME. SO KEEP CHECKING BACK ON ALL MY AUCTIONS!!

Good Luck!!
