I cant choose between Clear Spot & Milk as my favourites followed very very closely by the awesome Strictly Personal and then Shiny Beast as best of the rest. Trout Mask Replica grows on me like weird fungus every year....
Yes, it is tricky. My personal favourites are Lick My Decals Off, Baby, Trout Mask Replica, Shiny Beast and Strictly Personal. Although the original versions of the last two are as good if not better than the officially released versions: I May Be Hungry But I Sure Ain't Weird in the case of Strictly Personal, and Bat Chain Puller (finally released by the Zappa estate a couple of years ago) in the case of Shiny Beast. Both are well worth checking out if you like those albums. I also really like The Spotlight Kid, Clear Spot, Safe As Milk, and the last two albums are pretty good too! Basically anything apart from the dire pair from 1974.
