Weirdest Rock Album of the 60s
The 70s obviously had an explosion of art rock, but the 60s was an infant stage of art rock and so the truly weird albums are kind of few and far between. So what's the weirdest?
If Beefheart counts then I assume Trout Mask Replica would win, but I honestly don't know if it's a rock album or just a rock-influenced album. If it is then please give me your second choice. I'd have to go with Black Monk Time. |
I'm sure there are more and weirder ones but this is a good contender.

I'm sure people will disagree, but Fifty Foot House is still pretty weird by today's standards.

Here's a two-fer...
The Godz - Contact High with the Godz (1966) The Godz - Godz 2 (1967) |
TMR is #2 on the weird grade. Oh and TMR totally counts. This album isn't fully rock though. |
Philosophy of the World was released in 69.

Napoleon XIV
Jerry Samuels talks about making the album: They're Coming To Take Me Away, Ha-haaa by Napoleon XIV Songfacts |
Kinda hard to top Orgasm. Extreme metal's roots all go back to this one song.
|
That was my choice as well but someone pulled the full album video off of Youtube.
