Problems with Harry
The first batch of the new CD of THE TROUBLE WITH HARRY (Varese Sarabande, cond. McNeely) released on October 6th, has a pressing error; a pop at the end of track 3. People having bought this CD will be able to return it for a flawless copy which will be available in about two weeks.
Here’s what Robert Townson, the producer, says about it:
“The master I delivered to [JVC] was error free. All CDs manufactured in Europe, Japan etc. will be fine. In America we are having this corrected now. The very day I received my discs and discoved the problem I stopped all shippments and had our distributor (MCA) return every disc they had to JVC. By this time, however, most CDs had already shipped to stores. I would expect that the new copies should start hitting stores in about two weeks. People should maybe notify the store where they bought it that they will be coming back but wait just a little while before exchanging them since, at the moment, there are simply no defect-free copies to be had. Very disappointing and such a shame.”
