Which leaves two more spots for a top ten. I suppose I'll go with The Grand Wazoo and Joe's Garage.

Shut Up 'N Play Yer Guitar is really good.

If you haven't seen it already, "200 Motels". I'm sure you'll have something to say.

Hot Rats is definitely the place to start. Grand Wazoo has some great stuff but I find it a little patchy.

Apostrophe!!!
by far the best album I've heard by him

Lumpy Gravy (weird as hell, but awesome)
Hot Rats
Chunga's Revenge
Waka Jawaka
Overnite Sensation
