Immortality – Live at the Orpheum

For those not in the know, Pearl Jam is reissuing remastered versions of their second and third albums, “Vs.” and “Vitalogy.” Released in myriad ways, I’ve ordered vinyls of both album, plus the deluxe versions of the CDs, which includes a copy of the band’s standout show on April 12th, 1994, at Boston’s Orpheum Theater.

And the highlight of that show, was the band’s unbelievable performance of the new song – Immortality. They had debuted it the night before at the Boston Garden, and it was clearly a song written in memory of Kurt Cobain; Mr. Cobain had tragically taken his own life just a week earlier, and the entire music community was still reeling and mourning from the loss.
