Does that have "Watermelon in Easter Hay" on it? Cause that song is absolutely stunning -- a gorgeous lil' knockout.

That's on the Guitar album. That's also a great one.

"Watermelon" is on Joe's Garage. A masterpiece.
I love the synclavier stuff. For me, it's as much part of "electronic music" as his own catalogue. If you listen to some Stockhausen (recommended:
Hymnen
, especially the brain-melting Fourth Region), Subotnick's
Silver Apples of the Moon,
Terry Riley's
Rainbow in Curved Air,
and then Zappa's Civilisation, you can hear a whole universe of music that's not at all cold or sterile or trying-to-sound-like-something-else. I agree that
Jazz From Hell
, when heard as part of his conceptual Big Note, can sound out of place. I think it's a real shame he never got the chance to extend his synclavier work - he was really just starting out.
