Album DescriptionAvailable in:
"Folkjokeopus" is the third album issued by English folk / rock singer-songwriter and guitarist Roy Harper. It was produced by Shel Talmy and was first released in 1969 by Liberty Records.
The album is notable for the lengthy track "McGoohan's Blues", which Harper states was "inspired by actor Patrick McGoohan's depiction of the establishment rebel in his TV series, The Prisoner".An extended, Dylanesque strophic form accompanied only by Harper's guitar suddenly segues, after over ten minutes, first into a brief, new and quieter theme and then into a full-band coda.
The album title was borrowed to provide the name of a Minneapolis record store, Oar Folkjokeopus.
