Listed here are all the "recording events" I am aware of,
but no attempt has been made to list all the physical manifestations (e.g.
CD, LP, casssette) of each recording, nor have I tried to track down all
of the mass market compilations containing one or more previously
released Kiri tracks.
Recommendations:
The Indispensible Kiri:
Unless you have heard these recordings, you don't know what she can do. These have all been released on CD, so you have no excuse.
