Just walked into work to a Engineer working on a piece of our equipment belting out The best of Ed Vedder on the 80"screen ,
Now I'm a big PJ fan so I'm in my happy place in the office listening to his play set,
2 of the intern's have never heard of him,( I'd sack them if I could)
But I'm here trying to argue that Ed Vedder might have the greatest of all Great voices, they are looking at me like I got 3 heads,
Who's with me on this ,and if not him who have you got folks?? |

Eddie and PJ are stunning.
The killing of hair metal was accounted to Nevermind but for me it was 10, PJ on MTV Unplugged and the movie Singles.
Seen them 3 times including earlier this year when touring with Dark Matter (my 2nd favourite PJ album - yes over Vs) and they were as good as ever. 🎸🎶 |

Pearl Jam's Ten is still in my top 5 albums ever, and Eddie does have an amazing voice. He was from a time and a genre where there were many excellent silken but gravel-voiced leads, my absolute favourite being Mark Lanegan (RIP) of Screaming Trees. Notable mentions too to Chris Cornell (also RIP) of Soundgarden and Layne Stnaley (ALSO RIP) from Alice in Chains. |

Pretty much everyone I loved from the grunge scene is dead. Thankfully Dylan Carlson is still with us.
Pearl Jam were/are great. Always loved Mother Love Bone a little bit more (Pearl Jam - but with Andrew Wood. Also RIP). His death inspired Temple Of The Dog - that’s a belting album/band.
As for vocalists…Mike Patton. Total legend. |

"Didn't know he was singer for Pearl Jam. But never really rated them. Has a good voice but not the best who's up there ahead of him for you??"
Layne Staley definitely. Probably put Chester Bennington above as well |

Temple of The Dog - Hunger Strike
Cornell and Veder together…
https://youtu.be/VUb450Alpps?si=D3fBRYzWDEon90GO
If you’ve never heard Mother Love Bone, go check them out (particularly Chloe Dancer/Crown of Thorns) |

I'll be honest, I've never enjoyed Chris Cornell's voice. Everyone else seems to think he's the greatest but it just doesn't sound full enough. It's a bit Gene Simmons-y |

oops never heard of Eddie Vedder!
So in my list it would be Leonard Cohen, Roy Orbison and James Taylor - but a load more really (John Illsley, Johnny Clegg, Natalie Imbruglia, Tracy Chapman, KT Tunstall, Joan Armatrading... ) |

"We love Eddie Vedder's collaboration with Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. There was a song that featured both their vocals."
That's the only reason Why I have heard of him. The song was on the soundtrack for the movie dead man walking, it's a haunting tune if you watch the film too. |
