MUSIC THAT MATTERS – “Lyric of the Day”

(Music Cut #1 – “Why Go” intro)

Released on this day in 1991…

Pearl Jam introduced themselves to the world…

with an album called Ten

(Music Cut #2 – “Even Flow”)

Ten is one of those album covers you can picture immediately.

The band.

The hands in the air.

That pink-purple glow (hold up CD cover)

But apparently, that was not exactly the plan.

(Music Cut #3 – “Jeremy”)

Jeff Ament later said the cover was supposed to be more burgundy…

with the band photo in black and white.

So the iconic cover for Ten was an accident.

(Music Cut #4 – “Alive)

LYRIC OF THE DAY:
“I know someday, you’ll have a beautiful life
I know you’ll be a star in somebody else’s sky.” – Pearl Jam via “Black”
