#2 - Early Shawn Phillips
#3 - Japanese Image Music (off of LaserDiscs) (i.e. Just Friends, Sundance, Wind and Wave, Pastel Colors, et. al.)
#4 - getting to the commercial world - Warren Zevon
#5 - Blue Oyster Cult - Imaginos (resequenced in a linear order - 9, 2, 3, 6, 4, 8, 1, 7, & 5) One of the finest concept albums ever produced. A H. P. Lovercraft story told as a song cycle. It works both as music and a story.
I can pretty much bet that nobody has listened to at least parts of all 5...RSE

Oh. not that obscure... well apart from that Japanese image music. I've had the pleasure of seeing Shawn Phillips in concert circa 1978. Blue Oyster Cult I was listening to in 1973 and Zevon at his beginnings.
Since you know BOC, would you remember Captain Beyond's first album?
