   I'm really chuffed that TFF have been suggested.  At their peak they were brilliant.  The Seeds of Love was outstanding, long tracks, numerous themes explored, pretty proggy and certainly not mainstream pop (with the exception of the title track).  Whether they would qualify as prog is a little open to debate, but for my money they are easily as "prog related" as many others on here.  

A very difficult band to really pigeon hole, but a very classy one.  It's a shame that Orzabal and Smith tended to get on so badly, otherwise there may have been more albums of their's to enjoy.

Russellk, your taste appears very similar to my own, I am right with you on this one!

	I suggest that people who express their views in such topics actually listen to the music before they start talking about it. Of course by now I fully realise the futility of my suggestion.
