THE ALBUM OF THE DAY
STONE TEMPLE PILOTS...Purple
Released: 20 years ago today, June 7, 1994
Highest Chart Position: #1 U.S. Billboard Album Charts
Track Highlights: Pretty Penny, Big Empty, Interstate Love Song, Unglued, Vasoline
I recently listened to this CD and I realized that I enjoyed it so much more than I did in the 90's but I cannot tell you why. This is some good rock 'n' roll grunge style and it's hard to believe that it's now 20 years old. I recommend it with 3 1/2 out of 5 stars.
