Tears For Fears – The Seeds of Love (Blue Marble 2-LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Four years in the making, "The Seeds of Love" marked a decisive artistic leap for Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith, drawing on classic rock influences, jazz textures, and orchestral arrangements that set it apart from the synth-driven sound of their earlier work. The recording sessions famously featured Oleta Adams, discovered performing in a Kansas City hotel bar, whose piano and vocal contributions became central to the album's soul-drenched character.
The Seeds of Love is Tears for Fears' acclaimed third studio album, originally released in September 1989. A commercial and critical triumph, it debuted at No. 1 on the UK Albums Chart and achieved platinum certification from the BPI within just three weeks. In the United States, the album reached No. 8 on the Billboard 200 and was also certified platinum, while charting in the Top 10 across numerous countries worldwide. Widely regarded as one of the defining albums of the 1980s, The Seeds of Love features some of the band’s most celebrated recordings, including the hit singles “Sowing the Seeds of Love,” “Woman in Chains,” and “Advice for the Young at Heart.” This Deluxe 2LP edition on special-effect blue marble vinyl pairs the original album with a second disc of demos and rare versions, several of which are appearing on vinyl for the very first time. Housed in a single sleeve jacket with alternative artwork. Limited Edition.
