Ten - the reissues

On my wish list:

The reissue is just the first of many as Pearl Jam gears up for their 20th anniversary in 2011.

"The band loved the original mix of Ten, but were also interested in what it would sound like if I were to deconstruct and remix it," O'Brien. "The original Ten sound is what millions of people bought, dug and loved, so I was hesitant to mess around with that. After years of persistent nudging from the band, I was able to wrap my head around the idea of offering it as a companion piece to the original - giving a fresh take on it, a more direct sound."

Those of you ready to shell out should spring for the Super Deluxe Edition. You'll get:
-- The two disc set
-- A DVD of Pearl Jam's previously-unreleased 1992 Unplugged gig (the one where Eddie goes psycho and scrawls "Pro Choice" into his arm during "Porch.")
-- Four vinyl LPs -- one original copy of Ten, one remixed copy, and a two-LP live set from a 1992 concert in Seattle, known as Drop In the Park.
-- A replica cassette of the first recorded Pearl Jam demos of "Alive," "Once" and "Footsteps."
-- And, as a press release declares, "an Eddie Vedder-style composition notebook filled with replica personal notes, images and mementos from the collections of Eddie Vedder and Jeff Ament, a vellum envelope with replicated era-specific ephemera from Pearl Jam's early work and a two-sided print commemorating the Drop in the Park concert."
