There are still some gaps in my Beefheart knowledge (not picked up Strictly Personal, Clear Spot or Mirror Man yet) so this list is biased towards the albums I'm most familiar with.
Bat Chain Puller Electricity Ice Cream For Crow The Past Sure is Tense Run Paint Run Run The Floppy Boot Stomp Suction Prints The Dust Blows Forward n' The Dust Blows Back Hot Head Hair Pie Bake 2 |

Ella Guru
Moonlight on Vermont
Lick My Decals Off, Baby
Click Clack
Big Eyed Beans from Venus
Lo Yo Yo Stuff
Click Clack
Nowadays A Woman's Gotta Hit A Man
Bat Chain Puller

"Electricity", "25th Century Quaker" and "Trust Us (Take 9)" always stood out the most for me...

Big Eyed Beans still sends shivers. It is so out there, it rocks really hard, it is free association and expresses a kind of liberation from reality as we know it.
