Pearl Jam Unleash Jay-Z Collaboration

(Radio.com) For well over a year, Pearl Jam and Jay Z fans have been wondering when their on-stage collaboration at 2012′s Made In America festival in Philadelphia would see the light of day. That day has come: Pearl Jam Ten Club members found that performance on 7″ vinyl in their mailboxes last week as the A-side to their annual Holiday single.

At the second night of Hova's inaugural MIA event, he joined the Seattle legends on stage for his rap-rock classic "99 Problems." And while Pearl Jam typically releases all of their concerts as official bootlegs, that show have never been released, most likely because of that collab. While a little bit of that performance made it to the Ron Howard-directed documentary of the festival's first year, the full performance has never been made available.

The B-side of the single features frontman Eddie Vedder duetting with actress Jeanne Tripplehorn on the Rolling Stones' "Shattered," with Tripplehorn singing Mick Jagger's parts. In her best Julie Andrews voice. Vedder does the Keith Richards sha-doob-a-dee parts. Don't ask: instead just check out the video here.
