Records supposedly got lifted from Riverside's warehouse to get sold on the street to cover drug needs (isn't that the story you mentioned, Chris?), was that a problem for Prestige?

Can someone elabrate on this, what is this all about?

I believe Chris partially answered this in a post in the Weinstock thread:

One reason why Bob moved Prestige to Bergenfield NJ from NYC was to make it inconvenient for musicians to hang out at the office in search of an advance. That was almost a daily thing at Riverside. Anyway, I don't think disappearing LPs was a problem for Prestige--it was easy to rip Riverside off because musicians worked in the storage across the street.
