thanks k.w.- the irony is, (and fitting for this thread)
if not for zappa 's"rediscovering" varese,
few of this generation would know of him.

stockhausen had a tremendous impact on john lennon, influencing "revolution #9", "...walrus".
a bit o' trivia~ one of the sgt. pepper's cover cutouts is stockhausen.

also, arnold shoenberg came to mind after i posted.
i say "go for it" jim! if anyone can sit through "an hour of
polish prog" (apologies to "progressive shores")
i don't think a bit of varese will hurt anything.

the early days of college FM was basically prog oriented,
but pieces like tomita's "snowflakes are dancing",
carlos' "switched on bach", the clockwork orange stuff,
tubular bells was in the mix. it worked for me.
