Scarlets Walk
Scarlet’s Walk was Tori’s seventh solo album and marked her Epic Records debut. The album is a sonic novel of sorts which takes the listener on an aural journey of America’s recent and not-so-recent past. As the story moves from coast to coast, questions are asked and notions are challenged with each song representing a specific stop along the way. Scarlet’s Walk was self-produced by Tori and recorded in Cornwall, England. Scarlet’s Walk was also a key to an entire online bonus world at the last Toriamos.com web site incarnation, entiltled Scarlet’s Web. By inserting the disc in your CD-Rom drive, exclusive content was unlocked for owners of the album.
