The Tea Party (album)

The Tea Party (1991) is the eponymous debut album of Canadian rock group The Tea Party. The album was originally recorded as a demo which the band submitted to several record companies, however the trio was not signed to any recording contract and decided to release the album independently. The album production is relatively lo-fi, and the band re-recorded several of the songs for their major label follow-up Splendor Solis. Only 3500 copies of the album were made, some of which were cassettes, making the recording collectible to fans.
