Apostrophe gets my vote. Didnt think I would do it this early, but under further review I realized that among it's blues-fusion glory it just lacks that Zappa touch. It seems Jack Bruce is in more control of the album than Zappa himself.
 
 
Still a 5 star album though!Star

I can't believe someone voted for "We're only in it for the Money" over "Absolutely Free." And that "Freak Out" was gone before some of these. Oh well.

SIX WAY TIE!??!
 
 
And yes Mike, they are all 5 star albums from me. Except maybe Hot Rats. I reviewed ity as three stars but that was one of my first reviews ever and I think it is a terrible review as it should be at least four with some mroe explanation. I've been listening to it alot lately, and I cant bear to see it go now.

You're speaking about me. I like Absolutely Free the most of the early Mothers albums, so sue me.Wink

It wasn't an easy decision, though.
