Pynchonian Influences in Music

Pynchon, so fond of the Kazoo, has had some small
effect on the music scene since the 60's. The nature
of this effect has been analysed by Steven Moore in
"Pynchon on Record" ("Pynchon Notes", 10 [1982],
56-57) and also by Dr Larry Daw in "More on Pynchon on
Record" ("Pynchon Notes", 12 [1983], 46-47).

Collected below are some odd Pynchon references,
allusions, inspirations or collaborations found in the
Harmonium Mundi....
