Powell Got It Wrong, Matador Is Not Reissuing Harlem Release

RECEIVED Mon., July 6, 2009

Dear Friends,
    Much as I am grateful Austin Powell took the time to laud Harlem – if not my own credentials as a prowler (finally, my parents can be proud), I'd like to point out Matador has no plans at present to digitally re-release the band's Free Drugs album, which is still available in physical and digitized formats from their own Female Fantasy imprint [“Off the Record,” Music, July 3]. I don't recall anything about Matador reissuing said recording being discussed during my brief conversation with Mr. Powell.
Thank you,
Gerard Cosloy
Matador Records
