I don't really think of Tim Buckley as "pop" (except maybe his later, crappier recordings) but that's just me.
No sympathy for Van Dyke Parks here, either.
I think their "Nordic island" sound actually works very well in some situations - Paul Motian's percussion sounds very detailed on his ECM recordings of the 1970s and early 80s.

Oddly enough, I used the title of this LP for my screen-name on a singles website...
I'm not sure that there's that much mileage in either Week, Month or Moment. It seems like rarely does much discussion get started, unless there are a few folks really pumped on a particular side. I just don't see the point.
It was the movie, rather than an actual performance of the musical. Good show, but a lot of liberties were taken with the script, so it seems...
Unless you are referring to something else?
And thanks, HG!
