For my taste David Bowie is the epitome of folk/rock mysticism. In "Black Star" [his last] he leaves a message for us to decipher deeply embedded in tradition.

I have only lately stumbled on your sub and this post warms my heart and deeply resonates. Been a huge Fairport fan since I stumbled upon the Chronicals compilation album in my town library around 1977 when I was in HS. (Class of 79) I had just started playing guitar and was obsessed. I loved Jethro Tull - esp the more acoustic folk rock numbers so Fairport just ticked all the boxes and set me off of my lifelong UK & Celtic folk rock love. I can’t play it all that well but I listen to it constantly. Thanks for sharing this great list. Love em all! Cheers!!
