Title: Solid Debut
Product review: I probably would never have discovered The Tea Party if I had not moved to NW Washington state in 1996. I was in the car listening to Vancouver, BC radio and this amazing sound was coming out of my stereo. What is this?!!! Turned out to be "Sister Awake" from Edges of Twilight. We went to Vancouver (couldn't find the CD in USA) that weekend and I bought Twilight & Splendor, and been hooked ever since. Splendor is more "dreamy" than some of their others, but an amazing/unique effort for a debut album.Didn't see them live until Transmission but it was worth the wait. I have yet to see a band as precise in their timing/transitions as they were. Hard to believe all that sound was from 3 guys. Jeff Burrows is probably the best "unknown" percussionist out there. Like Peart for Rush, he is the power behind The Tea Party. Would love to see them get back together if their differences can be sorted out.
