Zomby Woof, but with Fifty-Fifty it may as well be 50/50.

Camarillo Brillo just in front of Zombie Woof & I'm the Slime.

I love 50/50 but Montana is the magnum opus on this album.

SHOCKED that Fifty-Fifty had no votes. I just changed that.

Not my favorite Zappa effort, but lots of good stuff here. Could have easily gone with Zombie Woof or Montana, but instead went for the song that still resonates in today's world - I'm the Slime.

Over-nite got Over-Playd. That's not anyone's fault, but because of that, it's lost it's charm for me. However, Montana is my favorite off this album. Yippie-ki-yo-ki-ay

This is an album that I love to hear as an entire experience; a wonderful recording indeed, but if I have to pick one, it would have to be fifty-fifty.

I was really disappointed when hearing this first time. Really don´t like he´s production style in this era, where he put his awful voice in the front (also without almost any echo). Montana is the best.

Tough choice between Brillo, Montana and Zomby Woof. Went with Woof because it needed more love, and the guitar work on that song is stellar.

My favorite Zappa album. Picking one is very difficult and I must add I'm shocked that 'Dinah-Moe Hum' has no votes. The jam going on behind Frank's monologue on that song is a killer. I love Frank's guitar solo on 'Montana' (one of his best). All that said I think today, I have to go with 'Camarillo Brillo'.

This was actually the first Zappa album I heard in its entirety. Today, I'll generally reach for Apostrophe' or Hot Rats first, but this is still a fun one.
Maybe Dina-Moe Hum is just a little too novelty song for some people's taste? If it's any consolation, it's a close second for me, behind Dirty Love.

Zomby Woof closely followed by Camarillo Brillo and 50/50.
