Atlantic, as the recording company, has the right to re-release the record if/when they choose. Right now they obviously don't want to: 1)give the public (ie. ignorant MTV-watching/record buying public) a confused idea about this still up and coming artist (in $$ respects, up and coming, not artistically... well, who knows?) and 2) (probably more important) they don't want to piss Tori off. If she should per chance move some day to another label, you can bet that the album would be released immediately, with a big sticker on the front saying: TORI AMOS' VERY FIRST ALBUM! Meanwhile, us rabid fans will listen to our bootleg or $500 legitimate copies of this not-quite-unlistenable-but-definitely-not-what-we-came-here-for album. John (one of the former)
