I laughed out loud when i saw that.
Anyone here ever been to Sc**thorpe on Humberside?
BTW I voted "Other" thinking of Afterwards from the Aerosol Grey Machine (Van der Graaf Generator). It sounds like harpsichord, anyway, and is the core of this undiscovered psychedelic gem.

Being For The Benefit Of Mr. Kite! is popular.
However, I haven't been able to verify that what to me sounds like a harpsichord actually is a harpsichord. Lewisohn's "The Beatles Recording Sessions" doesn't mention any harpsichord on that recording. It does mention that a lot of harmonium work was done by George Martin.
I guess it would be an anticlimax if the most popular harpsichord-driven song turns out not to contain harpsichord 
Similarly, it kind of sounds like a harpsichord on Shaman's Blues but can anyone corfirm this?

Of the ones here Dawn by The Nice. If Blind by Deep Purple was one of the choices I'd have gone for that, which has a wonderfully evocative solo from Jon Lord. Another good Doors one is Wintertime Love.

Do you prefer the bombastic (Yardbirds, Piggies), the subtle (White Ship, In Held...) or other use of harpsichord in proto-prog ?
Select your song.
