Artist must have 30 or more albums.
Which is your favorite album from that artist and why?

Probably Frank Zappa. Wikipedia has his official album count at 94, 30+ of them being posthumous releases. He's fucked with just about every genre. My favorite albums by him are Freak Out! and Hot Rats.

Freak Out! is one of the most influential albums in psychedelic rock and I guess rock in general. Pushed so many boundaries.

Hot Rats is just great jazz fusion kind of stuff. I always felt it was the album that Frank Zappa really wanted to make since his main focus was on the music rather than lyrics. Plus it features Captain Beefheart Cool

Heh. Harkan only needs 8 more releases to qualify. He's done 22 releases in less than half a year.

I'd have to go with Sun Ra. Haven't listened even close to a fifth of everything he's done, but what I've listened is all amazing, very refreshing.

I got between Bob Dylan and Chico Buarque, two of my favourite lyricists

For Dylan, I think my favourites are The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan and The Times They Are A-Changin'. I mean, I love so many albums from him, but these early ones, with simpler songs, and many of my favourite lyrics, just grab me in a higher way the others do.

For Chico Buarque, my current favourite album is Meus Caros Amigos. Here he's not much into making political songs, so some of his most beautiful lyrics are on it. Plus, the melodies are at the finest of his carreer.

Either Bob Dylan or The Fall

Favourite Bob Dylan album: The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan

Favourite Fall album: This Nations Saving Grace

I haven't gone through either of their entire discogs (I failed miserably attempting The Fall though).

I'd like to bring Ennio Morricone's name into the discussion. His soundtrack discography is overwhelming and pretty much everything I've heard has been totally brilliant.

I absolutely love bands with massive discographies.

Favorite prolific would have to be sun city girls. I have yet been disappointed by one of their albums and their discography is varied enough that it has yet to get boring.

Lil b, merzbow and djsharpnel get honorable mentions.
