As the debate about is or is not grunge may have legs, I offer this:
Some interesting selections here. Black Flag's My War? Veruca Salt's American Thighs? Would never categoriz(s)e either as grunge. If they are, then I was an early adopter, cuz I saw Black Flag on that tour (1984, or maybe 1985!). Yes, there's a Neil Young record. And Fun House by The Stooges. Badmotorfinger is #2, not Superunknown, interestingly, sandwiched by the two obvious ones -- Nevermind on top, and 10 at #3.
There's also Hole's Live Through This at #4, and one of my favo(u)rite records, L7's Bricks Are Heavy at #15. You go grrrrrrrrrrrrls.
There's also some mediocre music. Like -- IMO -- Stone Temple Pilots, who allegedly met while attending a show on that very same Black Flag tour, which I guess proves that even they had taste once.
