Pearl Jam: Fjord Fiestas

Andrew Mueller, Melody Maker, 20 February 1992

With Top 20 single 'Alive', they've already come from straight outta nowhere to capture critical approval and public imagination alike.

ANDREW MUELLER joined the band on the road in Scandinavia, saw two astonishing concerts and talked to singer Eddie Vedder about American derangement.
