Drew,
"Crusin with Ruben..." was zappa\'s attempt to have a doo-wop band hope you weren\'t expecting something else. "Roxy" is da **** though, hope you enjoy both of em.

Whatever you do, and whether or not you\'re already into Zappa, do NOT buy Thing-Fish

Another couple of good ones (and two of my personal favorites) which no one has mentioned are \'Chunga\'s Revenge\' and \'Weasel\'s Ripped my Flesh\'

One album that I don\'t feel is a good "gateway" album, but is unquestionably worth listening to is "Lumpy Gravy." Highly unique. Occasionally disturbing. Vastly underrated.
A dark horse.

Lumpy Gravy was the first Zappa album I ever heard and it turned me into a lifelong fan. It is a little strange for many though.

"Look, it\'s a little pig with wings"
"Drums are too noisy and you\'ve got no corners to hide in"

Should have mentioned Weasels earlier - got it as a vinyl twofer with Burnt Weeny Sandwich in a tiny record store in the south of France in their bargain bin. Definitely a bargain!!
