I think his strongest work is the Masada stuff (in all guises) and the Filmworks. I have tons of these, and can listen to them quite frequently.
the best thing about Zorn is that (aside from his weird infatuation w/ Patton) he attracts some REALLY FUCKING GOOD players. i love hearing Ribot play w/ him, and of course the quartet of him/Baron/Cohen/Freidlander is above reproach. Baptista, eYe, Dunn, Mori, Wolleson, etc...all excellent players.
