On VERY RARE occasions I've found Mari on LimeWire...

I think the LP was called "Showpeople"-- there is a "mastered from LP" version kicking around on Google for the unstellar price of $35, so my best guess is gonna be a sad "no."

The album itself might not be on CD, but all the tracks from it have been on CD afaik. There are a couple on the Great Expectations label. One on Mantra and a few Japanese collections. All way out of print.

Still a reissue with bonus mixes would be nice.

Funny you ask this....

I just put together a CD-R for a buddy of mine taking songs off the existing compilation CDs and used the UK lP running order (i tacked on a few bonus tracks as well)

I've always loved her stuff....and she worked with great people like Tot Taylor, Tony Mansfield, etc.

There are two CDs with her earlier material released on the Great Expectations label and as far as I know sold through Vinyl Japan.

The one I have, "Just What I always Wanted", is a collection of her songs from that album period and includes b-sides as far as I can tell.

Paid £36 on Ebay for the CD and it's very good, one of my better purchases.
