from the list above Hot Rats but RichardW is right Grand Wazoo is even better.
let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Where's the live albums, I love Broadway The Hard Way. From his studio albums, I'd choose Joe's Garage Acts I-III, for the perfect mix between humour, consistency and musical weirdness.

Oh man, I can't pick just one, the other really really super silly good albums would feel all jealous and stuff. But the one that is probably my most go-to disc is Roxy & Elsewhere. Its funny, it jams, and Tipper Gore hates it.Evil Smile

     Not in the list..."One Size Fits All" is the album that won me
over completely, an album of pure perfection, and "Uncle Meat"
as the early laboratory where Frank perfected all of his later
studio and composition chops.

I'd be awright with "The Best Band You Never Heard In Your Life" or one out of the "You Can't Do On Stage" series.

My favorites are Shiek Yerbouti , Studi Tan, Orchestral Favorites and One Size Fits All ( Inca Roads is a trully master piece).

And remenber Dick Heat, broken hearts is for assholes!!!

Ditto here. One Size Fits All. From this list, I'd have to go with Hot Rats.
