But if you like the Cardinal album, moving back in time you should definitely go for The Zombies' Odessey & Oracle (Eric's voice is a dead ringer for Colin Blunstone) and get the two Left Banke albums (Pretty Balerina/Walk Away Renee and Too). Absolute musts if you like that whole baroque/chamber pop thing!



Absolutely! I'd second both of those recommendations without reservation, and add that the Bee Gees' stakes its flag in similar territory, as does Emitt Rhodes' "American Dream". Michael Brown's post-Left Banke project Montage is worth a punt too, even if it's not quite up to his previous group's standards.

Meanwhile, if you're not averse to a dash of electronica with your baroque pop, there's Caribou's "Andorra" from 2007, which features a song named "Desiree" in obvious homage to the Left Banke track of the same name, even though it's a totally different song.
