PEARL JAM: REARVIEWMIRROR (Greatest Hits 1991-2003) Album (2004)

PEARL JAM Rearviewmirror (Greatest Hits 1991-2003) is a two-disc compilation album by Pearl Jam, released on November 16, 2004 through Epic Records. The album’s two discs are dedicated to different sides of the band’s catalogue: the first disc, or Up Side, contains heavier rock songs, while the second disc or Down Side consists of ballads and slower songs.

Both discs are in chronological order, with the exception of the last song on Down Side, the show’s regular Yellow Ledbetter closeout. Tracks Once, Alive and Black were remixed by Brendan O’Brien. Pearl Jam‘s version of the Victoria Williams song Crazy Mary was supposed to appear on disc two, but was replaced by Man of the Hour prior to release.

This release marked the end of Pearl Jam‘s contractual agreement with Epic Records. The compilation debuted at number 16 on the Billboard 200 chart, selling 96,000 copies in its first week of release. Rearviewmirror (Greatest Hits 1991–2003) has been certified platinum by the RIAA.
