More than 30 years after Natalie Merchant took her final bow with 10,000 Maniacs, the band's seminal set for MTV Unplugged is getting the reissued and expanded treatment.  Available on one CD or two LPs, this remastered presentation of the original multiplatinum disc adds three extra songs from the performance featuring another lead singer for a band who recently had gone solo: David Byrne of Talking Heads. They performed covers of Iris DeMent ("Let the Mystery Be"), a Jimmie Dale Gilmore country tune ("Dallas"), and "Jolene," made famous by Dolly Parton.
