Okay, everybody persuaded me to give "Ship..." another spin and I did. Although it wasn't a huge improvement, I still think "Ship..." jumped above "Them Or Us" right there, so "Them Or Us" gets my vote.

I have to be predictable and vote for 'Them Or Us', there are some great songs on it and a lot of not-so-great ones.
 
Somehow it seems all the 80s albums get eliminated first. Curious.Tongue

Cruising With Ruben & The Jets.
 
Them or Us is very good, actually. But that's what I think.

No, I love them all.Wink

I'm not that fond of You Are What You Is, Them Or Us, Francesco, and Thing-Fish.

I like Man from Utopia, Ship Arriving, Tinseltown Rebellion, and Baby Snakes

I'm talking pre-85 Zappa of course.

I really can't say there is an ORIGINAL Zappa album I don't like actually. The only one that I just can't listen to is the CD remaster of Crusing With Ruben & The Jets. The bass and drums are over-dubbed so terrible, thank god I heard the vinyl first!Tongue
