The New Zealand and Scotland links are connected with the F and not connected with Prog!

And both those links are musical? (I find there are not too many NZ composers)

[cloughie]

Another clue is a vinyl picnic.

Yes

Another clue is a vinyl picnic.

Beggar's Banquet...?

[cloughie]

Beggar's Banquet...?

You are sampling the wrong fayre!

[Flay]

"With a wracking head and literally my whole body shaking as with ague I write this and tell you I have just this afternoon ...

... toyed joylessly with Faust, Fripp, Free, Fruupp and various Flowers (discounting Foxtrot, as that's 70s)

Fabulous, rubbers!

[Flay]

A three-piece, originally unaccompanied folk group!

'ang on, 'ow can folk be progressive rock? (unless they progressed to rock?)

[rubbernecker]

(I find there are not too many NZ composers)

There are not that many NZ anythings.

Apart from sheep.

Another clue is a vinyl picnic.

As in, vinyl, a record label?

[cloughie]

'ang on, 'ow can folk be progressive rock? (unless they progressed to rock?)

Your answer is in your question, did Dylan progress electrically? and look how Joni evolved!

[cloughie]

There are not that many NZ anythings.

Sauvignon Blanc! That's an aside (and a pleasant drink), not a clue!

[rubbernecker]

Sauvignon Blanc! That's an aside (and a pleasant drink), not a clue!

Oh, yes, I was forgetting Cloudy Bay. Divine. Chardonnay and Riesling too.

[Nick Armstrong]

Sauvignon Blanc!

One day I shall recount here my experiences with a bottle of Cloudy Bay Sauvignon and an obliging flight attendant on a long-haul Air NZ flight Happy days!

No idea about this clue, gotta work...

[cloughie]

Oh, yes, I was forgetting Cloudy Bay. Divine. Chardonnay and Riesling too.

Agreed, I am not totally convinced by NZ reds but I'll keep trying!

So, just to recap, we are looking for a three-piece, originally unaccompanied, folk group who morphed into prog rock, is the vinyl picnic clue referring to the prog rock element? Are the proggers American?
