Speaker's Corner.....Best of the Best ?


.
I would love to hear from those of you that know the Speaker's Corner line of Lp's intimately.
.
What do you consider to be in their top 5-10 LPs (the best of the best - to be missed).
.
I am concerned with both performance and sound quality.

Strongly have to disagree with thomasheisig: I have bought more than 10 Speakers Corner and the same amount of Classic records in the last two years. Whereas I am content with the Classic records vinyls overall, two of ten had slight production faults, whereas from Speakers Corner all ten records were perfect - production and sound and artistic quality. Examples for perfect SC-records: Paul Desmond/Take ten, all Nina Simone reissues, Billy Holliday/Lady sings the blues, Johnny Hodges& Billy Strayhorn etc. etc.

I suspect Thomasheisig was commenting more about the clarity and transparency of the mastering on some of the Speakers Corner Decca reissues (which was somewhat variable), not the pressing quality (which was consistently very high).

it is the only reissue label, where a combination of 'good quiet vinyl' and reverence to the original recording seem to be the rule and not the exception....i would recommend their Wes Montgomery and Joan Armatrading releases, which were originally on A&M.......
