What songs by the Beatles come closest to the sound of British Folk-rock, and British Folk Pop ?

Penny Lane... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4OnDx9OIgyg ____ A Day In The Life... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Z10bP9hl1k&feature=related ____ ...and this one is totally Celtic...Rocky Raccoon... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nucSvl7VXVM

Pentangle was my favorite.

Thanks! I've heard of this one before, never available but free online. Amazing what the internet can get you.

Ever heard of playlist.com? It's free, you join and you can build playlists of up to a hundred songs from their gigantic song database, as many as you want. http://Pandora.com is also free. You make your own radio stations based on artists you like or songs that you like.

Actually, another group with a celtic sound is the Moody Blues. Here is one... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VpHIazW3NWA

Thanks! Magical Mystery Tour was the first album I ever bought -- still have the record but no record player. You're right -- EVERYTHING on this album works with British Folk -- Very English sounding, first truly surreal, trippy. Thanks for the Moody Blues, I was unfortunately only familiar with their later works, until now. Thanks!

If you haven't listened to the early Moody Blues you have missed the most fantastic music of the hippie era. More hippies got high to the Moody Blues than any other band...IMHO. Each album was like a symphony...one song goes right into the next. The Moody Blues got burned out after "7th Sojourn" in 1974 and split apart. When they got back together Mike Pinder did not join them. After that their music changed. They were still good but not like before 1974. Look at the early album list in this article and try to find all of those old albums... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Moody_Blues

You can still get some of their albums on CD, this one or Sweet Childe are the best.

Very Celtic, funny I never heard of Pentangle before even though I love this genre of music. Thanks!
