I gotta mention Robert Wyatt's 'Rock Bottom' as well. We're all so familiar with it after 39 years that it's too easy to forget just how downright radical, original and far out it was...and remains.

Which reminds me, in turn, to pretty much all of Virgin's early catalogue. Jeez, their very first batch included 'Flying Teapot', 'Marjory Razorblade', 'The Faust Tapes' and a ramshackle, pissed up session man collective called 'Manor Live' that were beyond adventurous in both commercial and musical terms. Oh, and something called 'Tubular Bells' that was itself far from regular fayre at the time. Then came Henry Cow. No wonder Branson got a reputation as an entrepreneur.
