Sleepless in Seattle: The Birth of Grunge

Steve Leggett of AllMusic calls Sleepless in Seattle: The Birth of Grunge "a nice set from a fascinating era." The Louisville Eccentric Observer claimed "what's here is empirical, historical documentation that a movement had been afoot long before Kurt Cobain's sad, snarling blue eyes looked through you." Tim Perlich NOW was critical of Sleepless in Seattle's the track selection and said "a Seattle grunge comp without Mudhoney's Touch Me I'm Sick is one you don't need." Seattle Weekly criticized the aesthetics of the liner notes but warmly received the music, saying "the whole thing flows like a prized mixtape." ==Track listing==
