Once this list of albums is cut down to the final 5 albums, no more no less, this tournament will stop and ANOTHER TOURNAMENT WILL BEGIN WITH 25 DIFFERENT ALBUMS. These 25 will also play down to 5, then the remaining 5 from each bracket will face off in a 10-album finale. So don't worry, Jazz From Hell, London Symphony Orchestra, Broadway The Hard Way and all your other faves will appear soon.
Got it?
Have fun, and START VOTING NOW

Guitar- I've always loved Zappa'a arrangements because they displayed the brilliance of everyone in the band. This is just a bunch of live solos that, though great, do not astound as much as his "real" songs.

Guitar.
Mr. Zappa was a wonderful guitar player, but an album filled with 2 hours of guitar solo is a bit too much for me.

I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive

See the plan is to give myself something to keep me occupied until I get my drivers liscense.
Nah, I am just trying to ensure that the best album really does win, therefore every album must be included.

Okay guys I'm not feel the greatest right now, therefore I have to hit the hay way before I expected, doctors orders because he doesnt want me stumbling around once the meds I had to take today kick in.
So we will have a one day run-off, posted right now.
Guitar vs. Joes Garage (Acts I, II & III), vote for your LEAST fave.
