for me it's easily Van der Graaf Generator's A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers

A lot of good stuff, but for me their beat is Happy to Meet - Sorry to Part

A friend of mine plays percussion in the band (pretty sure he wasn't with them on Wild Beasts however). Great, fun band. Their soundtracks to silent films are particularly entertaining. I got to see...

Urban Renewal by Andrew Vachss

Confessions of a Crap Artist by Philip K. Dick

Mr Blue: Memoirs of a Renegade by Edward Bunker

Never heard Union, I completely gave up on them after Big Generator.

Nor mine. Bad album to my ears.

recently finished Parable of the Talents by Octavia E. Butler, now reading The Star Diaries by Stanisław Lem

New Michael Mantler album is pretty strong

Probably my favorite accordionist is Amy Denio, with my favorite project she was in being (EC) Nudes.
Also, not really "prog" Guy Klucevsek is worth a listen.

Parable of the Sower by Octavia Butler

I've been enjoying his stuff thus far, though this one was a bit hard to parse.

True, but any autobiographical Burroughs is worth the read

This one bums me out more than most.
Back some 35 years ago or so I ran across the fact that he had written a solo trombone work. I searched everywhere I could to find a copy of the music (this was...

Queer by William S. Burroughs

This Census-Taker by China Miéville

The Captain is Out to Lunch and the Sailors Have Taken Over the Ship by Charles Bukowski

Alcest - Souvenirs d'un Autre Monde

Better than expected really

Got me second dose about 6 weeks ago. Starting at about 18 hours after that 2nd shot I woke up with body ache (felt like I got pushed down a flight of stairs). That lasted for about 8-10 hours & have...

Not one of his better collections, unfortunately.

nr: The World Jones Made by Philip K. Dick

Play the Piano Drunk Like a Percussion Instrument Until the Fingers Begin to Bleed a Bit by Charles Bukowski

Null-A Three by A.E. van Vogt

for me their best is The World Is a Ghetto.

He used to own a head shop near me with a little record shop attached. He was an entertaining and very nice guy. RIP

Love in the Time of Cholera by Gabriel García Márquez

Solar Lottery by Philip K. Dick

Tristessa by Jack Kerouac

Charles Mingus - Bremen 1964 & 1975

Richard Pinhas - Rhizosphere

No Frith? No bueno.

Yeah, that's the recording I'm most familiar with actually. The other one just popped up during another search & so I posted it!

Probably my favorite work

Reaper's Gale (Malazan Book of the Fallen #7) by Steven Erikson

Oregon & Elvin Jones - Together

Shibusashirazu - Shibu-Hata Great stuff!

Probably mine too.
The first 5 are pretty strong, but a huge drop after that for me.

The Days Run Away Like Wild Horses Over the Hills by Charles Bukowski

Oh, that sounds like a fun game!

As far as Who's Next, I wouldn't remove a thing. Still not "flawless" (few things are) but damn fine.
