Listen: Evil Little Goats episode 10: Daft Pearl Jam

Daft_Marco

Pearl Jam’s tenth studio album , “Lightning Bolt,” was released this week. But this is something you should already know, especially if you’ve been reading Guerrilla Candy the past few weeks because I’ve been writing a lot about the album.

To celebrate the release of the record, Jeremy and I hopped in the studio to share our thoughts on the album for the tenth episode of Evil Little Goats, titled Daft Pearl Jam, which I must say is the best episode yet. What makes numero 10 so much better than its nine predecessors? Two words: Marco Collins. That’s right, we got our pal radio legend Marco Collins to join us and talk about Pearl Jam. Oh, and we had two more guests make cameo appearances. Who are they? Jeff Ament and Eddie Vedder. Go ahead and give the podcast a listen below to hear Ed’s and Jeff’s contribution to Evil Little Goats’ tenth episode extravaganza.

As for Marco’s contributions, he shares his thoughts on the current state of the band and he also shares some pretty cool stories, including one involving the origin of the photo above. Trust me, you’re going to want to hear that photo’s backstory. It was a real treat to spend some time with Marco — who is a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame btw — talking about music. Oh, and did I mention that Marco was the first person to ever play Eddie Vedder’s voice on  the radio? Marco’s a pretty humble dude so he won’t admit to it, but I’m just going to outright say it here: Marco is responsible for Pearl Jam’s existence 😉

  1. OK, #1. Fuck you for not drinking coffee. I no longer have faith in your recording.

    #2. Did I get a damaged download? At about 33-34 minutes Marco was about to make a major point about Pearl Jam being in it for the long haul, then he’s cut off and I hear you and Jeremy alone and you finish off with Lightning Bolt. Then after that there are some clips of you guys from old shows.

    #3 One of those old shows was when you were talking about side projects, which made me want to mention, Imagine: How Creativity Works by Jonah Lehrer completely changed the way I think about how side projects affect Pearl Jam an their music. Check it out.
