December 24, 1994 –
Pearl Jam’s third studio album Vitalogy went to No.1 position on the US album charts on this date.
The Vitalogy album was released as a vinyl record two weeks before it was issued on CD. Vinyl was completely outdated and not yet retro-cool, but many people still had record players and Pearl Jam liked the imperfect sound, with the scratches and blips providing a different listening experience each time.
