anything on ESP disks and the 60s free jazz underground is worth menioning (Albert Ayler, Paul Bley, Ornette Coleman, Sun Ra, Frank Wright, Burton Green, Bruce Mackay etc etc etc).
avant gardists such as cage, reich, wolff, cardew etc all deserve a mention as well for being groundbreaking and provocative revolutionaries.
trying to think of some folk/rock stuff people haven't already mentioned... pearls before swine.... the monks... vashti bunyan..... all brilliant.
