Indispensable is a jazz vocal album by Michael Franks released only in markets outside of the U.S.A. in 1988 by Warner Bros. Records.[1] It is Franks' twelfth album, and his first of four compilation releases with the label.
The compilation contains a selection of tracks spanning eleven years, from The Art of Tea in 1976, to The Camera Never Lies in 1987.[2]
Franks has since released eight more studio albums, rendering this compilation a fairly representative sample of his earlier work; of note his collaborations with the Tommy LiPuma and Al Schmitt production team, and later with Rob Mounsey.
