Just an appreciation for those participating here.  Wonderful additions by everyone!

Watching this with interest as I need to do my own list soon. I would include Witthuser & Westrupp's "Trips + Traume" which I consider more Folk than Krautrock.

Lindisfarne were maybe a little bit on the 'Pop' side of Folk Rock but i love those early lps.. And Alan Hull was such a fantastic writer, singer and all great character.. we lost someone special when he passed..
