It's not my absolute favourite, I don't think it's perfect. I do think I wore out the cassette then I wore out the cd back in the day. Used to be able to play about 90% of the album on both guitar or bass, different songs tripped me up in different ways. The Greeting Song is still today my warm up song of choice on guitar.
Great album. I think this and By the Way are their best and I feel like they belong on my list as well. The Smashing Pumpkins may have inspired me to pick up a guitar, but I desperately wanted to learn how to play Under the Bridge. There are some chords in that song that are still challenging even today, so of course at the time I didn't get very far with the song. It was a bit discouraging...I gave up on that for a while and moved on to Smells Like Teen Spirit.

Personally, my go to warm up song is Rush's The Trees.
