Evolution Series: #4 “State of Love and Trust”

In this episode of the ongoing Evolution Series, Randy and Chris break down the live history of State of Love and Trust. From the slow groove that Dave Krusen developed with the song, to Dave A.’s monster rhythm and hard-hitting grind, we dig deep back into the annals of the Pearl Jam catalog to focus on the versions of the song that made this an instant crowd favorite. From Unplugged to Drop In The Park with the birth of ‘no’ added in, we cover all of the bases in this episode. We’ll also discuss how the song changed once the band grew and how it became a song that was all about speed, with less of the attitude of the early 90’s version.
