    Dirt
    Dirt is my favourite, but I probably listen to Unplugged the most.

    MTV Unplugged
    Probably should've picked a studio, but unplugged is one of the great live albums of all time IMO.

    Jar of Flies
    Jar of Flies is the only AIC album I've listened to in years. Dirt is a great record by JOF is soething special

    MTV Unplugged
    This is like choosing your favorite child, and I don't even have children. I struggled between Dirt, Jar of Flies, Alice In Chains, & Unplugged. The latter with the edge because it's like a greatest hits performed semi-acoustic live. How can ya not like that?!

    I went Jar Of Flies, absolute perfection. I probably listen to Unplugged more than anything though.

    Jar Of Flies is about perfect in its conciseness... But there's more of Dirt. :rock_on:

    Alice In Chains ("Tripod)
    Alice In Chains (with the 3 legged dog on the cover) This is the one I heard from them first way back in 95', it's so bleak, I like bleak music..

    Jar of Flies
    Musically, Alice in Chains is my favorite band from the Seattle scene. Loved the tone and production of the albums.

    Sap just edges Jar of Flies out for me. I'd vote for Unplugged, but just considered the studio releases.

    Dirt
    Not just because of the singles, but the deep cuts are just as good...Rain When I Die, Hate To Feel, Sickman, Damn That River, Junkhead...perfect from beginning to end!

    that's why I said "release" and not "album". :wink:

    Sap
    Dirt would be my #2 pick. There's just something about Sap that gets me even thought it's just an EP.

    yeah, I think I picked Dirt merely out of nostalgia. Sap and Unplugged are by far my most listened-to. I prefer Sap over JOF as I feel like JOF is way more produced, and Sap has a more organic, simply acoustic feel to it.
