Another of the Progressive Rock groups from England, the Strawbs drew more from Folk Rock than their contemporaries did. They had a poetic sound that seemed traditional and modern at the same time. It could have been that traditional British Folk influence that kept them anonymous in the States. Even if they were known, the Progressive Rock angle earns them no love from Cleveland’s voters.
