I can see this album being a huge influence on Tyondai Braxton for his "Central Market" album (which I love). There's the mix of orchestral/classical and pop elements, the sense of fun and humour, the mix of catchy melodies with atonal modern classical sensibilities.
I remember listening to a track from this album when I first browsed the 1001 albums list 7 or 8 years ago and being kind of underwhelmed. Either I was just in the wrong head-space for it, or listening to that one track out of context didn't quite work for me, because this was great!
