Stephen I disagree with you - I have only just got the album and I
enjoy it more each time I play it.  Farmyard Cat is fun and it even
sounds like it has a nod towards Aaron Copeland (not that I am a
music expert).  I have to say that I don't like all the songs that
Prefab Sprout have put out over the years but perhaps that is a mark
of their brilliance, that they are able to cover such a wide range
and their fans can agree and disagree with their music.  I am just
amazed that more people don't know about their music. 

And *ouch* on the Ray Coniff remark :-)
