Essential Zappa: what's missing from my collectio


I'm more interested in the instrumental side of Frank / Mothers. This is what I have so far:

The Yellow Shark: Personally, I think this is far and away
the best thing he ever did.
Waka Jawaka
Apostrophe / Overnight sensation
Civilization Phase 3
Hot Rats
Essential Zappa
Classical Zappa
Orchestral Favorites
Studio Tan
Guitar
Freak Out

It turns out I had more than I thought. Looking to fill in the holes in my collection. I took out "Lather" from the local library and thought it was ok. What about Chunga's Revenge (SP?)and Mothers Live (think it was a live concert recording from Austin, Tx.)?

I just do not get the Grand Wazoo, I recently bought it based on a Stereophile "To Die For rating" and just think it sounds 'noisy' after several listenings,

oh well, different strokes...
Adrian Belew is amazing! I once saw him at a venue with only 100 people and he rocked it until 1:30 AM. We were all crowding the stage to get closer to this dynamo and you could tell he loved it too.

I will look into those albums...
TWANG BAR KIIIINNNNGGGGG!

I am jealous you saw him with King Crimson. What an awesome group as well...
