I largely agree (with the possible expetion that I'd try and fit the VU and maybe Dylan in there somewhere, if we're talking groundbreaking 60s artists). I mean fucking hell, the guy recorded:
Safe as Milk
Strictly Personal/Mirror Man
Trout Mask Replica
Lick My Decals Off, Baby
At a rate of one a year between 67-70. That shit is insane! Easily up there with the Velvet Underground 67-70, or Beatles 65-69, or Dylan 63-66, as a display of totally mind-boggling productivity and invention. Legendary.
