    IMHO too I did used to have Freak Out, Absolutely Free and We're only in it for the Money (which were all Zappa/Mothers iirc) and liked them all. But that was the early 70s and I've not heard them since then. I'm not sure what I'd make of them these days, though I'm tempted to give them a go. So little time, so much Zappa

    I'll hold judgement on 'Anyway' as I rarely play it, because the plastic 'envelope' sleeve is a PITA to negotiate.

    IMO Hendrix's best album. Took me a while to discover it as I was put off by the horribly kitsch cover.

    One of Neil Young's albums I haven't got: probably because I think it is from his 'grunge' era, but I could be wrong.

    No it's from 1974 it's the album in between 'Time Fades Away' and 'Tonight's The Night - but it was out of print from 1981 and did not get released on CD until 2003.

    For an original vinyl copy you're looking at fifty notes or more.

    Excellent!

    I knew someone who on hearing 'Safe as Milk' for the first time thought that Beefheart was mocking Howling Wolf's singing voice. He was a big blues fan, as I was, but I had to explain to my friend that, IMO, Beefheart was in fact complimenting the great blues singer.
