Speaker buzzing/distortion

Here is my setup:

Completely rebuilt Fisher 500b
Wharfedale W60's (the 2-way versions)
Dual 1019 Turntable with Shure m91 cartridge
Denon DVD-3910 SACD/DVD-A player

Everything sounds GREAT! But, on ONE LP, I can hear a buzzing/distortion sound in one of the tweeters. It does not do this on any other LP or any CD, SACD or DVD-A. At first I thought it was the LP or cartridge, but I switched the speakers and the problem followed the speaker so this must me a problem with the relationship between this particular LP and this particular speaker. I have not yet replaced the capacitors in the speakers. Does this sound like an anomaly, a problem with my tweeter, or possibly a crossover capacitor problem that will go away if I re-cap them?

what is the LP?

I had a similar issue that drove me nuts until I realized that it was the actual CD and not my speakers.

Does it do this with other speaker systems, too?
 
It is a new pressing of Kenny Burrell and Jimmy Smith Blue Bash. I can't imagine it's the LP as the problem followed the speaker when I moved it...
