Jello Biafra in the book "Incredibly Strange Music Vol II" writes:
The most deranged "rich person do-it-yourself" album is All That I Am by KIT REAM, heir to the Nabisco cookie fortune. According to someone who knew him, he dropped tons of acid in the '60's and wound up in a mental hospital where he spent six months staring at his own reflection in a mirror. Eventually the acid wore off, he was deemed "cured" and let loose in society, whereupon he decided to become a guru and make a record. From his maniacal expression you can see that this is a man who has seen it all and knows that he has "the answer". The songs are light beatnik jazz mixed with pseudo-psychedelia; he chants lines like "Don't be so holy, poly, over my soul-y." As far as I know his cult is still vastly outnumbered by Maharaj Ji, Rajnessh and the Moonies.

Seth, I want to be more interested in these posts, but I seldom recognize any of the artists you list. So, I think you should pick out a couple favorites from each playlist and include them in your posts as a file or a video, so we can whet our whistle on that shit. Also, please include pictures of cross-species mating.
Hey Seth;
"Thanks for the add!"
(That's what a music artist or manager would say to us at KROQ when we added a song to our show.)
Certain other DJs at the station would then reply to the artist/manager, "Thanks for the cocaine!"
