Indispensable: The Best of Michael Franks is a jazz vocal album by Michael Franks released in 1988 with Warner Bros.. 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.
Franks has since released seven 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.
