Alex Yates has a little shameless behaviour in the past
Even with the printing mistakes, it is still worth it. I really like having the accompaniment. It keeps you honest and makes doing these enjoyable in a new way. The CDs are not just block chords to play over. The harmonic playfulness is what makes these fun and keeps you listening. If you are familiar with the Stamp exercises, the misprints are not worth sweating over. It is only for newbies that this might be a bit of a problem. (but even then, I don't think so)

I still give it two thumbs up.

Andrew, I do not own the Poper nor the Wiener books, so I cannot comment. I guess it would be frustrating for the syncronization to get knocked out of whack like that though. A DVD with demonstration would probably be a nice idea. Maybe that will be the next thing on the horizon.
