Did anybody else notice an error in the 2nd track of the CD "Lady Lucifera"? Between minutes 1 and 2 my CD skips several times, especially around 1'33 min. I played the CD on different stereos and on two computers, it occures everytime and it also doesn't rip to iTunes.
When I look closely at the playing surface of the CD I do recognize some sort of disruption within or between the layers of playstic at the spot where I estimate track 2 to be. It seems to me that this must be a manufacturing error.

I contacted Quartet Records three times already within the last month but haven't heard back from them. If somebody from the Label is reading this, I would kindly ask for a replacement disc.

Thanks.
Philipp

I'm having a similar bad experience with the Quartet Records people.
I bought the Almodovar / Igliesias 11 cds boxset. I received it mid december.
I found the fourth CD is broken. It's the score to HABLE CON ELLA.
The first half of the disc is unlistenable.
I wrote four times to the info email of the label.
No one wrote in return. Now I've been forced to open a complain file in Paypal services.
I don't expect a refunding, but I like this product, I want the disc been replaced, but I read that the box set is just sold out.
I'm really concerned.

I have just played my copy and it plays fine. I can't see any flaws on the disc either.

'Don't' wait too long before 'Return(ing) that CD to Sender'. 'it's Now or Never' really. Send the CD with a note..... That should force them into sending a replacement.

I had the same problem with RoGoPaG - Carlo Rustichelli had around 5 different copies to try and get a perfect one which would play all the way through. Had no luck in finding a good copy, I could see the flaws under a good bright light they where all in different areas across the different cds which made different tracks skip.

Thanks for alerting me to that. I bought it recently and have not opened it yet.

Quartet guys are a little-team there time too email is slim, while grinding-out top-stuff, premiers, shipping, while raising families.

As i do pickup the phone you'll get answers, Elvis bravos Quartet as king-players of the score-world, no defect here.

After reading my words above, they writing me:

Apologies for the late answer, but I just found your message after another customer informed us of your post on FSM board. It seems that your email went to the spam folder, it has happened on several times with other customers since December, and we have not been able to control it. Our webmaster is working hard to remove this bug from the info page. Sometimes, when you protect the sites with a strong security (what is necessary) these things happen. Sorry for the inconvenience.I will send you a replacement copy of HABLE CON ELLA today by DHL, no worries. And sorry so much again for this delay.Best regards

So, another happy ending.
The replacement copy is just arrived, the HABLE CON ELLA score is something wonderful, the whole box set devoted to the music of Alberto Iglesias to Pedro Almodovar is a must have, a product of care and love.
I'm grateful to Quartet Records and very stysfied by their explanation.
I will be continue enjoying their incoming releases.

Thank you to the anonymous FSM customer that informed Luis and the other people at Quartet Records of my complaint.
JBB
