A Listmania! list by Mr. P. Scoble "sydsacid" (Manchester, England)
(VINE VOICE)    (REAL NAME)   
 
Blue Things
1.  Blue Things by Bluethings
The list author says:
  "A personal favourite. Fine, fine album of Byrdsy jangly brilliance. Criminally underrated. Hard to find on cd but reasonably easy to pick up on vinyl. "High Life" is a stand out track."
Used & New from: £29.99

The Little Black Egg
2.  The Little Black Egg by The Nightcrawlers
The list author says:
  "Not just a one hit wonder! Many tracks on this cd are excellent folk rock with a garage edge. Definitely worth closer attention!"
£11.06   Used & New from: £6.65
5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (1 customer review)

San Fran Sessions
3.  San Fran Sessions by Beau Brummels
The list author says:
  "A stunning package, and far better than the proper albums in my opinion! Disc 3 particularly shines as classic folk rock. There's a lot of stunning solo acoustic demos too and the sound is stunning!"
Used & New from: £66.00

Box Set
4.  Box Set by Buffalo Springfield
The list author says:
  "Another stunning box set, with loads of unreleased demos and outtakes. Folk Rock of the very highest calibre throughout. Essential!"
Used & New from: £36.00

Things
5.  Things by Merrell Fankhauser
The list author says:
  "The actual band is called HMS Bounty, one of Fankhauser's many bands. This is folk rock and garagey psych, probably his best effort and rewards repeated listens."
£18.47   Used & New from: £16.00
5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (1 customer review)

Why's Ain't Supposed
6.  Why's Ain't Supposed by Mojo Men
The list author says:
  "There is a bit of filler on this, but tracks like "My Woman's Head" more than compensate. Garagey folk rock excellence."
Used & New from: £9.99

The Leaves Are Happening
7.  The Leaves Are Happening by The Leaves
The list author says:
  "A great album, a bit fuzzier than most folk rock, but their version of "Hey Joe" and "Dr. Stone" are essential, as is most of the rest! Recommended!"
£20.15   Used & New from: £9.00
4.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (1 customer review)

Fifth Dimension
8.  Fifth Dimension by The Byrds
The list author says:
  "To my mind their best folk rock album (with Younger Than Yesterday!), the album is classic folk rock with a bit of raga rock thrown in. Absolutely essential! Nuff said."
£3.97   Used & New from: £1.95
4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (9 customer reviews)

Fairport Convention
9.  Fairport Convention by Fairport Convention
The list author says:
  "A UK band (their debut album), but it sounds like a US band. Without Sandy Denny, but an exemplary album of westcoast folk rock vibes! A must have."
£5.77   Used & New from: £3.29
4.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (13 customer reviews)

Ignition (4cd Box Set)
10.  Ignition (4cd Box Set) by Jefferson Airplane
The list author says:
  "Must have box set. The first two albums are pure folk rock with a taster of the psych they would later purvey. Simply a wonderful band of many talents and voices. Essential"
Used & New from: £20.23

Rubber Soul
12.  Rubber Soul by The Beatles
The list author says:
  "Yes, it's folk rock, and one of the best examples of the era! Touched by the hand of Dylan. Essential, as is "Help!" which is also folk rock"
Used & New from: £2.98

Bringing It All Back Home
13.  Bringing It All Back Home by Bob Dylan

Long Years in Space
14.  Long Years in Space by Neighb'rhood Childr'n

Sandy Denny & the Strawbs
15.  Sandy Denny & the Strawbs by Sandy Denny
