Well there's also Can and John Zorn.
I guess it was just Beefheart. But from my experience fans of Beefheart tend to also be fans of Can, Zorn, Branca, Public Image Ltd and John Cage.
I have a rather hostile relationship with avant garde fans as they tend to be rather harsh on prog. I guess I'm guilty of judging you from a few preconceived notions.
But either way, Beefheart is pretty much the musical equalvilent of Duchamp's Fountain as far as I'm concerned.
