Eddie Vedder - The Full Birdman Sessions

In the spring of 2000 while in miami beach, fl; eddie vedder spent a drunken night in the studio of sean "birdman" gould.
With a few random musicians, they all recorded off-the-wall covers. This session was dubbed "the birdman sessions", and copies of the recordings were made for all of the participants.

Copies of these tapes eventually leaked out amongst the pearl jam trading elite, and it stayed amongst those elite for quite a while.

About a week later, a post appeared on pearl jam's official message board, apparently directly from the band, asking that all of the songs be removed from the site, the video mission (tvm).

They hadn't given permission for these songs to be transmitted, and were upset that they were being made public. Within a few hours, it was official - the cease-and-desist sent to tvm about these sessions came directly from the band's lawyers.
