Hi,
Just saw it on a german Prog site:
The finnish space-psych-folk-Prog band (that's what they wrote ) Hidria has put one of their albums for free download on their homepage...
check it out, it's for free  ... I will listen to it now...
http://www.hidriaspacefolk.st/discog.htm (hope the link works, ...the first album)

I didn't have ANY Problems, I clicked on the songs (normal left click) and the download window opened, no problems...
but a friend of mine told me that he also has problems and the download doesn't work, but finally he did it, but don't ask me why or how...

Not sure how helpful this is but might be worth a try. 

Make Windows media player the default for playing MP3 files, then left click on a track. This opens media player and starts playing the track. You can then click on File, Save Media As when it's playing to save the MP3 to your hard disk.

Worked for me!

By the way, another free complete album is on the band Overhead's website, link through their page in the reviews section. It's very good prog too!

There's a lot of Ozric Tentacles in there - those are the main influences - and hence Hillage (L, Green), Gong (You, Angel's Egg). But mostly the Ozrics.

{edit}

That last track IS the Great OM Riff (on You, Green and one of the Ozrics' albums).
