Anyway,
John Barleycorn is a well-known album that's often considered to be prog folk. TBH, it's never felt that way to me. It's an album of rock edging towards jazz and it just happens to latch on to a folk song for it's title track:-
Mice and Rats in the Loft is more prog than folk. At the time of its release the album was pretty much ignored, but it's now becoming a cult classic thanks to the internet. Well, it's convinced me! There's lots of musical invention on the album's three tracks; lots of acoustic guitar, strings and I don't know what else. See if this 18-minuter doesn't hold your attention from start to finish as it did with me:-
