lthough it is often misplaced as a bootleg item for its frequent unavailability in the US, Alhambra is actually an enhanced CD-ROM EP that doubles as a showcase for alternate -- and, in some cases, more revealing -- acoustic versions (and one ill-fated remix) of several songs from the band's 1995 album, The Edges Of Twilight; in fact, the only new material to be found here is "Time," a collaboration with the band's close friend and long-time British folk legend Roy Harper. In stripping down the electric-oriented arrangements for songs like "The Bazaar" (entitled "The Grand Bazaar" in this version) and "Silence," the band demonstrates just how talented they are in any setting by allowing their abilities in blending extremely strong melody with eastern instrumentation and arranging to flourish away from the high alters of rock and roll. The enhanced capabilities of the CD contain such things as the videos to "Sister Awake" and "Shadows On The Mountainside," live performance clips, a complete discography, and other collected amenities for the fans. I like music of The Tea Party and I decided to buy this acoustic version of my favourite album.Read full review
