Here are a few:
Michael Hurley and the Unholy Modal Rounders: "Have Moicy"
Tonio K:  "Life in the Foodchain"
Anouar Brahem:/ John Surman/Dave Holland: "Thimar"
Not really that obscure, but certainly among the albums that must be heard is Graham Parker and the Rumor's "Squeezing Out Sparks."  This is among my favorite albums from the 1970's.
I have that Hasil Adkins album.  It is indeed strange--hillbilly punk that is ahead of its time.  My favorite cut of his is "We've Got a Date."
trentmemphis,

I like that album too.  I would also add to this list White's "Transnormal Skiperoo."

Have you seen the terrific music documentary he made called "Searching for the Wrong-Eyed Jesus"?  This look into Southern culture and music is very interesting.  Among the musical groups featured is Sixteen Horsepower; I would include there album "Low Estate" on this list as well.
Sandstone,

I agree that Harry Partch is extraordinarily underappreciated.  I love his "Delusions of the Fury."
