I don't know how you'd quantify most beloved. But they were special. Dirt, their self-titled album, Jar of Flies and even Sap to an extent were all excellent. Not to mention their MTV Unplugged session. The big thing they had over the others was the harmonizing between Staley and Cantrell. Great band. They inspired many rip offs, the primary one being Stone Temple Pilots but also lesser but still popular bands like Days of the New.
