Noted. I'm also intrigued by Stubb's comparative study of twentieth-century avant-garde music and art -
Fear of Music: Why People Get Rothko but Don't Get Stockhausen. Have you read that as well? I might just order the whole lot.
I also have a very crude PDF scan of
Krautrocksampler, but it's a bit of a bear to read. Sadly physical copies are usually several hundred dollars. I paid that much for
THE MANUAL, but that was an exception.
