[rec.music.gaffa] Seeds of Love

I got the new Tears for Fears CD the day it was released.  I meant to
post a review, but duane@EBay.Sun.COM has done an admirable job already.
 I think the album gets better after a few listenings (although I was
quite pleased the first time through).

I have a related question (not having seen any magazine interviews with
TFF).  What has happened to Ian Stanley?  He and Orzabal shared most of
the credits in the previous two albums, and although his name does show
up on the last page credits in _Seed_of_Love_, it was conspicuously
missing from the rest of the album.

Does this relate to the "problems" that caused the three year wait for
this album?  Or, is Stanley still with the band and just sitting out the
songwriting side this time?
