Recorded live at the Budokan, Toyko, Japan, on March 3rd, 2003. Recording information: Tokyo, Japan (03/03/2003). A decade down the road, when most of the original Seattle grunge bands had fallen prey to either mortality, acrimony, or changing public tastes, Pearl Jam still stood tall above the well-settled, flannel-flecked dust. At the dawn of the 21st century, presumably in an effort to beat the bootleggers, the band starting releasing dozens of live albums. The best of these, like this 2003 disc, demonstrate the group's continuing vitality. From early grunge-era anthems such as "Evenflow" and the survivors' anthem "Alive" to the death-rock cover "Last Kiss" and the melodic, contemplative "Betterman," the full breadth of the band's vision is shown. As befits a band that Neil Young once used as a backing outfit, they know how to jam without veering into self-indulgence--a good thing, considering how many concert recordings were already floating around by the time of this double-disc release.
