First copy was BMG for me. Along with Vitalogy and Nirvana Unplugged.

It was probably my favorite non PJ album of the 90s.
I'm pretty sure Tiny Music came out in the 90s.

Purple is better. So is Shangri-La. But Tiny Music is great too.

Jesus...I'll admit Purple is close but Shangri-La?

Depends on what I want to hear as to whether Purple or Tiny Music win out.

Shangri-La is definitely in my top 2 STP. I sometimes think it might be my favorite.

One of those Chester songs was actually really good.

Did anyone read the write up Sterogum came up with when Tiny Music turned 20? I really appreciate the idea that making a “cred album” is almost entirely rooted in the self-serious 90s. Good read.

I cannot take your list seriously, but only because Big Empty isn't on it (WTF?!), Wicked a garden IS on it, and that dumb Suit song you put as honorable mention.

... wait, you don't have Creep OR Crackerman?! Jeez, dude!

Lol. Big Empty would probably be there if I made the list again today. Creep and Crackerman aren’t close to my top 20.

Really???

Crackerman was my first favorite STP song. It fucking rocks, and so does D&B, which was my backup for Crackerman in the tourney. WG has just grown tiresome for some reason. Creep is just a very well-crafted piece of songwriting, so I couldn't pass that one up when it was up for grabs.

I feel the same way about Crackerman as you do about WG, and I haven’t loved Creep since I was 15. It’s in the same category as Radiohead’s Creep; Iconic songs that haven’t done anything for me since I became an adult.

Seems like many here have 'outgrown' Core, and I guess I haven't yet. Those songs mostly held up quite well when I spun the album a few days ago.

I don’t dislike Core. Plush is still one of my favorites. There are a couple others I really enjoy. I just think the STP of Purple/Shangri-La/Tiny Music is much more interesting and overall much more creative and just ... better.

I haven't had any desire to listen to Core in more than 20 years. All the other Weiland STP albums have been in a fairly regular rotation since then.
