Oh really? Actually, I'm totally fond of Freak out! (probably my
favourite), but do love also many of his lives, including Roxy,
obvisouly, but also New York, Filmore (really, I do love that one), or
any You can't do that on stage anymore, and finally, I adore Broadway
the Hard Way (believe it or not). 


Yes, yes, yes.. "Broadway the Hard Way" *is* great. It's very political and still the band has so much fun playing so precisely! 
 "Freak out!" and "Absoulutely Free" started it all for me (purchased them on the same day). They're both still two of my favourites.  I very much like "Burnt Weeny Sandwich", love "Hot Rats" and "Bongo Fury", and well at some time I even liked "Uncle Meat".
 

> Baby Snakes was a cool film though.


It still is! It is visually mind blowing. I hope there will be a DVD release of "The amazing Mr. Bickford" one day.
