Ranking those wannabe's Prearl Jam over Nirvana is quite possibly one of the worst things someone could do.  It might even be music blasphemy.

Oh Yeah!! And "The Dark Side of The Moon" too.  I can't believe I forgot about those two...  As far as Supertramp goes, I always liked "Breakfast in America" better.  It's hard to pick just ten...

"Ten" is one of the most coherant, complete albums of the nineties.  I wish I could say the same about anything Cobain did...  I do, however, recognize his greatness and the mark he left.  "Teen Spirit" was as big of an eye opener for the people of my generation as the Beatles on Ed Sullivan were to that generation.

Somebody digs Yes.   I can't believe I forgot Rush!!  2112 is probably my favorite by them, although as I get older I find their later synth stuff more and more appealing;  "Time Stand Still" is beautiful both musically and lyrically.

Heheh, I knew Yeager would chime in with Yes.  :D

I am a fan also.  Hard to pick a favorite, but a few include "Heart of the Sunrise", "Long Distance Runaround"  and a great guitar opening on "And you and I", plus so many other great songs.

Breakfast in America was excellant, but Crime of the Century was my choice to check out and compare stereo equipment for it's clean sound and excellant music.

:aok

Nirvana pretty much sucked, except for their "Live in NY" album, which is great.

On reason it's great is because it's 1/2 cover songs, and it's stripped down from the "nirvana" watermelon sound of their studio recorded releases.

I could say the same about Pearl Jam.  Unplugged in New York is a great album but so are the rest.

P.S. Where is the Iron Maiden?

Did Pearl Jam have an "Unplugged" album?

I hate Pearl Jam and Nirvana, other than Nirvana's Unplugged in NY Album. Nirvana's Unplugged in NY is just great. A lot of the songs are cover songs, and done well.

Curt Cobain had talent, yet he didn't think he really did. Sad.
