Details: Product descriptionRare 1996 EP only released in Australia & Canada.Features 6 tracks including remixes, acoustic tracks & a version of ‘Time’ featuring Roy Harper.Amazon.caThe Tea Party’s Eastern influences are on full display on this enchanting six-song enhanced CD, starting with the wild raga of « The Grand Bazaar, » where traditional rock instrumentation gives way to percussion, woodwinds, hurdy-gurdy, and strings. A pair of acoustic tracks, « Inanna » and « Silence, » sustains the mood, while the bluesy « Turn the Lamp Down » features a full-on percussion jam. The closing track, « Sister Awake Remix, » is just that, its electronic edge acting as counterpoint to the acoustic material. Legendary British folkie Roy Harper, a longtime friend of Tea Party singer-guitarist Jeff Martin, shows up to add vocals on the band’s cover of his song « Time. » The CD-ROM component includes videos of « Shadows on the Mountainside » and « Sister Awake » as well as live, acoustic performances of « Inanna » and « Silence. » There’s also background info on the myriad instruments the Tea Party employ–a definite plus for inquisitive fans.–Adem Tepedelen
