I'd say Zappa. He was a year before crimson, and freak out is definivly prog.
It is said to be the first Test-pressing of the corean release??

Absolutely Free can be considered as a prog, but Feak Out! is just remotely  related, to my opinion.

That's not progressive, that's psychedelic, and it used to be a trend at the time due to their lovely friend the LSD.
