A difficult list to make anything of because there are relatively few artists — even if some are either worthwhile or at the very least interesting or not typical of this site — and no notes, yet the list is not like run-of-the-mill lists here or on other musical websites.

"White and Nerdy" - Weird Al
In all seriousness, dig your Phish, KG&LW, Talking Heads, Ween, and Elvis Costello love. Kinda quirky, but so am I.
I would wonder what you think about Grateful Dead's '72 album, etc. considering they were a different kind of jam quirky.
