Hey am I on?, were the uncertain first words delivered by Eddie Vedder at the start of the bands 1995 frolic on the airwaves, Self-Pollution Radio.
The four-and-a-half hour show, broadcast on 8 January 1995, was a Seattle scenesters delight, featuring live sets from Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Mudhoney, The Fastbacks, and Mad Season (a satellite project for Pearl Jams Mike McCready and Alice in Chains Layne Staley, previously known as The Gacy Bunch), a spoken word piece from Nirvanas Krist Novoselic, tracks from ex-Nirvana drummer Dave Grohls upcoming solo album (at least that was how it was credited at the time), impromptu interviews and much more.
The venue for the live music (the DJ part was pre-recorded) was a house in Seattle owned by Vedder which was used for rehearsals by both Pearl Jam and by other bands and musicians.
This album showcases Pearl Jams legendary set from that evening in its entirety. The vast majority (seven cuts no less) of tracks come from the groups then recently released Vitalogy album, with the other three numbers performed coming from Ten and Vs. Featured tracks include fan favourites such as Corduroy, Not for You, Spin the Black Circle, Porch and more.
This broadcast remains an important historical document in the Pearl Jam story, and is essential listening for all fans of the band.
