Pearl Jam - PJ20 Soundtrack on Vinyl, the Pre-sale Is Up!




Just when you thought all the rumors were total horse shit, behold; PJ20 on glorious vinyl! The release date of December 13, 2011 has been confirmed! I first caught wind of a pre-sale over at elusive disc but balked when I saw the $79.99 price tag. It was just a matter of time before this beauty appeard at Amazon. Well, that time has come.... and it's currently listed here for only $59.15!!! I love the mom & pops as much as the next guy but when you can save a whopping $20 and get free shipping and zero taxes to boot, how can you resist?

The soundtrack to the acclaimed documentary will be issued as a limited-edition triple 180-gram vinyl, pressed at RTI. The package comes with a 20-page full-color 12" x 12" booklet (with introduction by director Cameron Crowe), and each LP is housed in a full-color inner sleeve with stills from the film. The jacket is a rare double-gatefold sleeve, filled with hundreds of images from throughout the band's career.

This appears to be an EU release and only available in the U.S. as in import. Weird. Whether or not TenClub releases a ultra-limited version in the U.S. is still yet to be seen.
