Any Michael Franks Fans ?

I have been enjoying Michael's music since the 1970's & had the opportunity to see him live on one occasion. As a musician I appreciate his vocal phrasing & I suppose the fact he uses some of the top name jazz musicans on his recording session is one of the reasons I continue to purchase his recordings. My question is, from an audiophile view point, what record/CD do you think have the best sonic qualities.
Thanks! Geno

I have been an avid fan of Michael Franks since his very first album, "The Art of Tea." Viridian is correct to point out that this album is the finest sounding and the most musically rewarding of all his releases, with "Sleeping Gypsy" coming in at a close second. Most of the follow up albums sound mediocre and not as musically satisfying. If you dig Franks, then you should try David Frishberg, Ben Sidran or Mark Murphy.
