AS TIME GOES BY/NO RESPECT IN USA

[jeff]

I have to say in writing this i am upset.
I bought my copy of ''AS TIME GOES BY''
on april 13th, 2004.

Im from chicago ill and the store i had bought it from
had only 2 copies and they said they are not ordering
anymore.

I have been to 15 record stores to see how they are
treating the cd. Not one of them has the cd on display anywhere and the cd is no where to be found in the stores.

Its a shame how these stores treat karen`s memory and the CARPENTERS in general.

Its sad . It really is.

Sorry to be negative but i had to tell someone.

I bought my copy at a Border's book store in my local area. They had four copies of it. But you are right Jeff, the new disc isn't getting much recognition, but I suspect that is the fault of Universal and not so much the retailers.

Well I guess I can be happy that in a few years, the AS TIME GOES BY cd will be gold. Almost all of their albums have gone gold, platinum or multi platinum. We just have to wait. They are the type of act that will always sell well.

I like your viewpoint on this Cam83. I'm sure also that as time goes by As Time Goes By will end up selling fairly well. I had heard recently that Karen's solo album is nearing the gold status.

Really TYPICAL of Universal Music Monster that even in a key Anniversary year -35th -and fresh success / new fans on board with Gold -35th USA set ....there is no support for this key album

Universal should have linked in some retailers & ads for ATGB & Gold ...plus some radio samplers with 4/5 tracks from ATGB ....we could all do a better job and we are not even in the industry ....!!

Really Richard needs to undertake some media / tv / radio interviews / performances in USA this year and raise the profile of this new release ....having fought Universal for the full 15 track album ....this deserves real success
