On re-listening, and conferring with Hugues, they seem more crossover to us. Not a lot of folk in most of it.
They are "folk" without a doubt.
Dear Svettie,
thank you for showing us that I Salici can also play acoustic at the back of their yard around a campfire.
Can I just remind you that systematically: acoustic =/= folk
Here is what they do in concert:
not very "doubtlessly folky" you'll agree (though there are traces of folk in their jams, which is why we are hesitating)
In other words, we (ProgArchives) thank you for an interesting suggestion (most of yours are, anyways) and we have taken it into consideration, and are in the process of accepting it

Very doubtlessly folky stuff indeed. But if you want to put them in the same section with Supertramp and Electric Light Orchestra, it's up to you.
