It's Out!
William Hung's record debut is out, and to noone's surprise, it's rather painful to the ear. This article describes the slow to non-existent sales of it. I like this part of the article:

At Tower Records on Durant Avenue, about 50 of Hung's CDs occupy prime real estate -- the top shelf of the rack by the cash register, above discs by Modest Mouse, ABBA, Johnny Cash and Blondie. But they were off to a slow start, with three sales in the first hour. Robert Carvalho, a playground supervisor from El Sobrante, bought all three. He said they were for his daughters.

"I'm sure I'll laugh at the CD when I hear it,'' he said. "And he'll be laughing, too, with my $30.''
