Beyond that, The Seeds Of Love is a more organic sounding "big" rock album (lots of varied instrumentation, more jazz influence, etc.) and both of the records that lead singer Roland Orzabal did under the TFF name afterward, 1993's Elemental and 1995's Raoul And The Kings Of Spain follow up on Seeds Of Love's sound with more alternative rock & trip-hop influences.

TFF album is absolutely one of the best of all time. They don't put one toe wrong on it, never mind a foot.

Or you could start with their greatest hits, Tears Roll Down...
All sounds good, gonna work through their stuff.
