Seeing as how we're down to three I'd like to nominate:

Learn To Talk/Country of Blinds(1990) is technically two albums, but most places you can find/download it offer it as one. If you ask me, it first PERFECTLY as a double album. There's never been a time I've not listened to it as one. Now, in a lot of ways this isn't quite as 'avant-garde' or experimental as many of the albums presented. I mean, it uses mostly guitar, cello, and other conventional instrumentation. But, compositionally, it's by far one of the most interesting things I've ever heard.
Maybe I'm just not knowing of the source, but Skeleton Crew - to me- sounds nothing like anything else on the planet. It's kind of folky but not folk, it's avant-garde but definitely not noisey. There's worlds of Celtic influence, very relatable lyrics of social/politica satire, improv jam sections, tons of sampling, strange vocal patterns.
By far, probably Fred Frith's greatest band/work imo.

Terence Hill, as recently confirmed during an interview to an Italian TV talk-show, was offered the role but rejected it because he considered it "too violent". Dustin Hoffman and John Travolta declined the role for the same reason. When Al Pacino was considered for the role of John Rambo, he turned it down when his request that Rambo be more of a madman was rejected.
