Scarlet's Hidden Treasures is an extended play by Tori Amos. Packaged with Amos' live video Welcome to Sunny Florida, the release collects six outtakes from the sessions for Scarlet's Walk. Many of the tracks included also appeared on a web project entitled "Scarlet's Web" that was accessible to those who bought a copy of the album.
The track "Apollo's Frock" was partially conceived in 1996 during a live performance of "Doughnut Song" from the Boys for Pele era.[2] "Bug a Martini" is a bossa nova–influenced piece featuring prominent use of a Wurlitzer electric piano.[1]
"Mountain", a song featured on "Scarlet's Web", was not released as part of this collection, and remained unreleased outside of that project until 2023, when Amos released a remaster of Scarlet's Hidden Treasures digitally. Also appearing on the 2023 remaster is "Operation Peter Pan", originally released as the B-side to "A Sorta Fairytale".
