, and has never been released on CD, and David Thomas has pronounced the album to have been officially "disappeared":

"If it HAD existed I'd explain the reason to disappear it as follows: that version of the Pedestrians was more of a theatrical experience than a musical one and the intention was always that the release be a limited edition; a limited edition means that it's limited. But the album never existed so there's no reason to explain ANYTHING." http://ubuprojex.net/archives/pbvue.html
