This is too hard Flo!

I'll play:
- Big Swifty: the horns are killing me. Some insane, psychopathic drumming from mr Dunbar.
- The Idiot Bastard Son
- Dog Breath In the Year of the Plague : only Samla Mamas Manna ever got close to this kind of perfection.
I am not saying Peaches en Regalia. That's too easy.
I know. Probably like a Rush fan saying "Tom Sawyer" or Yes fan saying "Roundabout." But I think there's a reason that's one of his more popular pieces -- it's just very well done, says what it has to say, and leaves. I appreciate him composing in such a wide-ranging way within a compact format.
"Arf." -- Frank Zappa, "Beauty Knows No Pain" (live version)
1) Little House I Used to Live In
2) Don't You Ever Wash That Thing
3) The Orange County Lumber Truck

Keep 'em coming - I'll be making a list for the next Zappadan
Yep. IIRC, Frank once called it his ultimate song because it's the only one everybody liked, or something to that effect. It's certainly the first one I thought of.
Pointlessly arbitrary as these lists always are (and especially so with someone like FZ), my personal other picks would be "G-Spot Tornado" and "Inca Roads."
1. Watermelon In Easter Hay
2. What's New In Baltimore? (instrumental version only)
3. Sinister Footwear
Willie the Pimp(Hot Rats) - Only song by the Captain I enjoy
Inca Roads(One Size Fits All) - Just Gorgeous Playing by the Duke!!!!
Florentine Pogen - Brock just Kills it!!!!
An impossible task...
Here are 3, for now...
1) Inca Roads
2) Big Swifty
3) Apostrophe
Wet T-Shirt Nite
Billy the Mountain
Who Are the Brain Police?
...but ask me another day and I'll probably pick three entirely different toonz.
Cobra handling and cocaine use are a bad mix.
Mudshark
Zombie Wolf
I'm the Slime
RDNZL
Village of the Sun
Echidnas Arf (of You)
All from the Legendary Helsinki Concert, my favorite Zappa moment
Studio probably Inca Roads, Muffin Man, Watermelon in Easter Hay
The Black Page
In no order and strictly of the moment:
Let's Make The Water Turn Black
The Adventures of Greggery Peccary
Andy
Sleeping at home is killing the hotel business!
But objectively it has to be in my top-3 as well (it's the first thing that I ever heard of him). I am just counting that others will mention it so it doesn't need my vote too.
Btw, I love your other two picks.
Drowning Witch
Sy Borg
Inca Roads
That's really really hard.
If it isn't Krautrock, it's krap.
