The only group I know that seems to have all of those influnces connected in a cool way is a band called The Shins. I strongly recomend the "Oh Inverted World" album

No problem. The album before is a fine example also.

What's baroque pop anyway?
I'd say its; Descending minor melodies on a backdrop of cembalo, pipeorgan and/or strings.
Examples of good music falling into this category
ABBA-One Of Us
ABBA-The Day Before You Came
BB-Wonderful
BB-Surfs Up
John Cale-You're A Ghost
Shangri Las-Past, Present and Future
Roy Wood-My Dear Elaine
Cheap Trick-Heaven Tonight
Janis Ian-Society's Child
Ahh..

While defining pop music into subgenres sometimes gets out of hand, here's what allmusic says baroque pop is.
"Baroque Pop emerged during the mid-'60s, a time when artists including the Left Banke, the Beach Boys, producer Phil Spector, and composer/arranger Burt Bacharach began infusing rock & roll with elements of classical music, achieving a majestic orchestral sound far removed from rock's wild, primitive origins. Layered harmonies, strings, and horns are all hallmarks of baroque pop, as is the music's dramatic intensity. At the time of its inception, it was rock's most mature outgrowth to date, and its spirit lives on in everything from the Philly soul sound of the early '70s to the like-minded chamber pop sound of the mid-'90s."
As for the Shins, I don't think I'd call them baroque pop. I do love them, though.

The Left Banke's "Pretty Ballerina" defines Baroque Pop. There, definition given.
Lot's of interesting musical bits, some more advanced than Pet Sounds (
it is possible) and some interesting instruments.

Phil's Righteous Brothers stuff I would consider baroque pop, as well as some of his Ronettes stuff (Walking in the Rain, Paradise). Pet Sounds certainly.

Too bad their catalog is out of print. Only way I can listen to Left Banke songs is on the downloads they have on their official website. I though Rhino or somebody had remastered the catalog, but guess not. Wasn't Andrew Sandoval supposed to have been involved?

There is a 1992 PolyGram release called "There's Gonna Be a Storm, The Complete Recordings 1966-1969." 26 tracks. I have it. Found it in a store.

Yeah, that was released in 1992 and it's selling on amazon for 87 bucks and up. A little pricey for something that will probably be remastered and sold for 12 bucks in a year or two.

I think I bought it for about $10 a year or two ago. It was just sitting there in our local indie record shop. God bless decent record stores.
