You can shoehorn psych-folkie-decades-before-there-was-such-a-thing Peter Stampfel into the esthetic of this List by observing that he was an original postmodernist, approaching the vernacular music and culture of the past as things to be playfully interrogated and consciously utilized rather than bronzed or set in amber.  Or, as Stampfel puts it, "We stick our hands up the ass of American music, grab it by the throat, and pull it inside-out. It’s 21st century 19th century American music played in a vast variety of 20th century styles."
