It may seem like nothing now, but in '73 the weirdness quotient was quite high. You'd get albums like that confiscated at school. It happened to me with the School's Out album. Damn nun never gave it back.


Perhaps if you'd returned her habit, wimple and black metal compilation she would have been more forgiving?Wink
Oh, I gave all that up when I quit Catholicism. One could say I kicked the habit. Evil Smile

Obviously, nobody can have your depth. Nobody can possibly get your reference. Except, of course, anyone who has ever listened to the nationally syndicated Dr. Demento radio show, which ran for nearly 20 years in every major market in the U.S.
 
AND I know that the Dr did indeed play Spike Milligan! And the OP did not specify rock music or Dark Elf music!
The OP didn't specify you should belittle the rest of the posters with your myopic opinions either. Just pointing out that, once again, you think way too much of yourself. Like Narcissus with grammatical issues.
 

Back in the day, we had weird music you young whippersnappers could never understand because you lack the musical intelligence I have. Now I am not going to share any of the weird music I know because it is way to progressive for this site and I think you just are not ready for it. No matter what the topic I got information only I know but I just do not think you are ready to hear about it because only I know this information and if I told you the information you might think you know it. So see whippersnappers you must stay in the dark and every now and again I will send a little light from back in the day.

I'd say that some of those free-form Jazz albums from Elton Dean are quite weird.
Also when Soft Machine lapse into free-form, it's plain weird.
Split Enz - Under The Wheel - try that on for weirdness .
Kajagoogoo - Freyo ; just bizarre.

Sufjan Steven's disturbingly gentle ode to a mass-murderer from the splendid Illinoise album:
 
Neutral Milk Hotel's In the Aeroplane Over the Sea album. It is so odd...but...so...I...can't. stop. listening.

^ Yep - NMH - I'm not into Indie, but I got this on LP coz of how much it has been raved about - seriously odd and mildly disturbing. Not something I spin often.

Probably the weirdest songs I've ever heard are Revolution 9 by the Beatles, Happy Family by King Crimson, and Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving With a Pict by Pink Floyd

Born, no doubt, from the equally psychotically weird blues/psych tune "Electricity" from Safe as Milk.

It may be weird, but damn it's one of the greatest albums of all time.
There is no dark side in the moon, really... Matter of fact, it's all dark...

Henry Kaiser - Moose and Salmon; the whole album really. I transferred the album to CD without notating the individual track listings, and it's obscure enough that the internet doesn't help. It has lots of strange guitar sounds.

Shatner deserves mention.



Also anything by Moog Cookbook, such as:

Surprised to that this tune hasn't been mentioned yet:

One of the most insane tunes I've ever come across and  it's absolutely brilliant. Geinoh Yamashirogumi i9s nothing short of a genius.

So, weird and great: Can - Tago Mago and Soundtracks; Gong - Flying Teapot and Camembert Electrique; Magma - Mekanik Destruktiw Kommandoh.
I'm not actually fan of these, at least at the current moment, but it's rly weird and interesting stuff - Soft Machine - 3 first albums, Amon Duul II - Yeti, Tanz der Lemminge
