Alhambra (1996) is an EP by The Tea Party and was used as a bridge between The Edges of Twilight and Transmission. It feautures four intricately re-worked acoustic songs from The Edges of Twilight and two others; the first a song entitled "Time" with Roy Harper on vocals, the second a remix of Sister Awake by Rhys Fulber.
Alhambra is an Enhanced CD and feautures multimedia that the band used as a way to explain themselves, inviting fans to explore the details of exotic instruments, song meanings and video & audio clips.
