Eccentric?

Syd Barrett's solo albums
Robyn Hitchcock and the Egyptians and The Soft Boys
Anything by Daniel Johnston
Guided by Voices- Alien Lanes, Earthquake Glue, most of their early stuff.
The Love Below- Outkast
late 70's-90's era Jonathan Richman
Archandroid- Janelle Monae (although one of my favorites right now)

The Microphones' Glow, Pt. 2 is reminiscent of it, but falls short

For eccentricity, you can't beat the 2nd side of Ogden's Nut Gone Flake. Stanley Unwin's monologues are most odd.

Apart from that, may I introduce to you a most eccentric compilation... Thai Funk Zudrangma... great to play at parties for people with odd tastes for the kitsch and indecipherable...

This is some weird shit. Maybe not as weird as Beefheart, but infinitely more listenable.

Y. Bhekhirst - Hot in the Airport
Arcesia - Reachin'
Anything by Wesley Willis, Jandek, The Holy Modal Rounders, or Sun Ra

The further you look outside the boundaries of conventional music, the more eccentric things tend to get. Within the "mainstream," I'd definitely agree with Trout Mask and Disco Volante being some of the weirdest music ever to get national recognition.

After reading the title of this thread on the main page I immediately thought of Trout mask. Come to think of it, it is also fairly eclectic. Ranging from mountain man (The dust blows forward) to pirate (orange claw hammer) to political (Dachau blues) etc.
