Pearl Jam’s Original Drummer Shows Up on the 2017 Fan Club Xmas Single

December 30, 2017 Alan Cross 0 Comments

Dave Krusen, the drummer we hear on Pearl Jam’s Ten album and then was quickly estranged from the band until their 2017 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction, turned up again on the group’s most recent Christmas single.

The Ten Club’s gift this year features a cover of “Round and Round” by Chuck Berry on the B-side, a recording made during rehearsals for the RnRHoF induction. The A-side is a version of “Alive” recorded at that same soundcheck.

Now can someone please post both recordings on YouTube?
