Allhallowsday knows this one. Recorded by a former beauty queen at 65 years old. She played all the instruments. Also had a tie-in coloring book.

This is weird, but "musical":

Good ol' Jean Jacques Perrey, and frequent collaborator Gershon Kingsley and sometimes Dana Countryman.  Mr. Perrey had been doing weird instrumental music since the 50s!  Good beat though.

If you guys think that's weird, you probably think this is weird (I know some of you hate it, but I think it's great!)

Leona Anderson was a deliberate parody of Florence Foster Jennings:

Tywanna Jo Baskette

This is her most "popular" song by far (according to youtube plays):

I think this is a legitimately haunting ballad, though:

Though FLORENCE FOSTER JENKINS made her recordings prior to LEONA ANDERSON, I think LEONA was better known in the wake of her 1959 album which was released a few years before JENKINS first "album" was released in the early '60s... probably inspired by the success that met Music To Suffer ByJENKINS of course had died in 1944 and probably would have been forgotten if not for LEONA

Since the focus is more "bad" and "humorous" than "weird" I offer MRS. MILLER:

All Music Guide lists a genre called "obscuro": "he weird, the puzzling, the ill-conceived, the unclassifiable, the musical territory you never dreamed existed." Here are all the albums they give 4.5 stars (no 5 star albums, perhaps understandably):

"We All Together," We All Together
"Tonto Rides Again," T.O.N.T.O.'s Expanding Head Band
"The Music of Raymond Scott: Reckless Nights and Turkish Twilights"
"The Many Sides of Lee Lee Hazlewood"
"The Essential Marcos Valle, Vol. 2"
"The Electric Lucifer,"  Bruce Haack
"The Cycle Breed," Davie Allan
"The Complete ESP-Disk Recordings," Pearls Before Swine
"The Best of Lieutenant Pigeon"
"The Best of Bardot,"  Brigitte Bardot
"The Amazing New Electronic Pop Sound of Jean Jacques Perrey"
"Songs of Experience," David Axelrod
"Song of Innocence," David Axelrod
"Seriously Deep,"  David Axelrod
"Samba '68,"  Marcos Valle
"Psych-Out [Original Motion Picture Soundtrack]"
"Powerhouse, Vol. 1,"  Raymond Scott Project   
"Polnareff's,"  Michel Polnareff
"Philosophy of the World,"  The Shaggs
"Permanent Damage," The G.T.O.'s
"Os Mutantes,"  Os Mutantes
"One Nation Underground,"  Pearls Before Swine
"Music for Scattered Brains," AZ
"Meet the R. Stevie Moore!," R. Stevie Moore
"Manhattan Research, Inc.," Raymond Scott   
"Ludo,"  Ivor Cutler
"Love and Other Crimes,"  Lee Hazlewood
"Life in a Scotch Sitting Room, Vol. 2,"  Ivor Cutler   
"Legend of a Mind: The Underground Anthology,"  Various Artists   
"Jewels Were the Stars,"  Pearls Before Swine
"Hush Little Robot," Bruce Haack
"Everything Is Possible: The Best of Os Mutantes"
"Dance to the Music,"  Bruce Haack
"Contact,"  Silver Apples
"Constructive Melancholy: 30 Years of Pearls Before Swine,"  Pearls Before Swine   
"Bubble Pop: 20 UK Pop Oddities,"  Various Artists   
"Balaklava,"  Pearls Before Swine
"74-76," Destroy All Monsters
"2," We All Together
"1968 to 1970: An Axelrod Anthology,"  David Axelrod

Of the one's I'm familiar with, I wouldn't think Raymond Scott was too weird or bizarre, though he did do some experimental stuff:

Bruce Haack is super-weird. I don't really like his stuff at all.

David Axelrod is a great, creative jazz/funk composer. I don't think of him as weird; maybe I just haven't heard the right cuts.

Some of the other names were mentioned already.

...
 

At a glance, the only one I know I have is "Philosophy of the World,"  The Shaggs (reportedly KURT COBAIN's favorite record).

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
