Re: What's the weirdest record you've heard and enjoyed?

This is such a wide open topic because everyone's idea of weird is so different. I would guess that most people on this board would happily groove along to 45 minutes of The Faust Tapes, but I have many friends who would see it as a sure sign of an addled brain.
The Residents' Eskimo came up earlier, and I think I'll go for that one. I only heard it recently and even into a 30 year career of esoteric music listening it struck me as pretty peculiar. It's no the noise, per se (which is often not a million miles from more standard ambient fare) but the whole concept and strategy. What a weird thing to concoct. And the sense of absurdity about the whole record is palpable. Yes, I have weirder sounding records, but fewer so weird in execution.
