'71 Acid Folk: Comus, Jan Dukes de Grey, Spirogyra

The Dark Elf wrote: Of these three, Comus. But as Greg noted in his original post, there are far greater folk albums from that year (Cat Stevens, Roy Harper, Joni Mitchell, Leonard Cohen, etc.).

I do think that these are three of the greatest progressive Acid Folk albums of the year, and they are three of my favourite albums of the year. Hush's Extradition, Fresh Maggots self-titled, Bread Love and Dreams' Amaryllis, Tír na nÓg's self-titled, C.O.B.'s Spirit of Love, and Bröselmaschine's are some other favourites of mine of this ilk. I love psychedelic folk, and folk music more generally, but I am often particularly attracted to the psychedelic side of things, and I tend to appreciate the strange.
