Jagged Little Pill Acoustic

To commemorate the 10th anniversary of her landmark U.S. debut, Jagged Little Pill, which won 1995's Album of the Year Grammy and made her the poster girl for angry young women everywhere, Alanis Morissette went back into the studio to record this unplugged version of the disc. Why bother? While the strength of the tunes still shines through, the overall effect is much like declawing a tiger. Although it is interesting to hear some songs, such as "All I Really Want," take on a country twang, it is almost sacrilegious for "You Oughta Know" to be reduced to a spineless strummer. This one is for diehards only
