Pearl Jam 20

If anyone knows a good music story, it's longtime Rolling Stone writer Cameron Crowe.  Also a noted filmaker, he combines his talents to show the history of Mother Love Bone, better known to you as Pearl Jam.    It's a nice review of the 90s, reminded me of a 30 for 30 episode.



Not so much of the Grunge/Seattle scene is here.  That's where they started but not where they ended up.  There's a nice growth arc of the band, showing their coming into their own, with the help of a mentor, Neil Young.

The different personalities come out with the band members:  Stone & Jeff (the original 2), Matt the drummer, Mike on guitar and of course Eddie Vedder on vocals.  And there's a nice tribute to the original Mother Love Bone vocalist, Andy Wood.
