1. Lather (which covers everything) What an album!
2. oh godddddd... where to now...? Grand Wazzoo / Waka Jawaka / Hot Rats (related releases limited by format?)
3. Yellow Shark
4. Apostrophe / Overnite Sensation
5. Tempted to put Make A Jazz Noise.... or Uncle Meat but I tend to think of the Mothers as a separate unit. Otherwise Money... no, I know Absolutely Free...  bugger. No. No? The guitar albums, all 3 of them. Or the YCDTOSA series. Oh dear... what a mess. How about the Cheepnis compilations!

Lucky I don't compile charts. My rigging would be hopelessly exposed. Thriller was at 200 (just) while Your Are What You Is was a number one superdooper smash! Well that was my POV then...Wink  ... and now....
