These days I'm waaaay more likely to have a complete spin of Purple or Tiny Music, than Ten or Vs.
I also love No 4 and Shangri-La.

You had me till the end...

Shangri-La is awesome once you can get past the production.

I get that Shangri-La is more of a mixed bag, but it's also home to at least 3 overlooked gems:

A5 Wonderful
A6 Black Again
A7 Hello It's Late

The grooves on this three song section are doomed to die early on my vinyl.

[tragabigzanda]

Top 10 maybe?
Hello Morning
Close Captioned
The Kill
Place/Position
Do You Like Me?
Latest Disgrace
Recap Modotti
Nightshop
Break
Life & Limb

I'd maybe bump Life & Limb for Epic Problem

Days of the Week and Regeneration!

DOW is an all-timer for me.

Do you feel you missed your calling?

[zeb]

The latter.

I think it depends a little on how far we're expanding the "grunge" label.

But using bands that I think the vast majority of us would agree fit the bill...

1. Nirvana
2. Pearl Jam
3. STP
4. Soundgarden
5. Smashing Pumpkins

If we're including Jane's Addiction, I would sub them in at #4. If the Pumpkins don't count, I'd throw in AiC, obviously.

There's lots to ponder here but the hardest pill to swallow for me is the one where Jane's Addiction bumps Soundgarden.

[Kevin Davis]

The guitar solo in “Bi-Polar Bear” is one of my favorite STP moments

[B]

I want AIC on that list instead of Soundgarden.

[zeb]

There aren't many 90s songs better than Interstate Love Song.

[VinylGuy]

Hello, Its Late is gorgeous

[coptheriotact]

stp songs never get stale because i can always just groove along with the basslines and will have a great time every time

Billy Corgan interviewing the DeLeos:


Robert and Dean seem like such good dudes.

[Ello Sailor]

Finally, another great episode. Tom Morello seemed cool. The rest of it has been complete and utter bullshit.
