Finnish prog scene of the 70s

   I am not an expert in this kind of music, but I like a lot:
Kalevala and, especially, their fantastic "People no names" with strong folk-influence.
Tasavallan Presidentti - I prefer their first period with Frank Robson on vocal, later - with Tolonen as lead composer - is ususal jazz-rock
Charlies - their only album is a good example of heavy progressive rock 
What other band from this country should be heard?
