Regular Blue Note reissues quality?

They are issued by Scorpio, you can tell because most do not have bar codes. They are quite variable, with many sounding terrible. There is speculation that they are from digital media, but there is no hard evidence, other than the sound. After trying a few, I gave up. They are not on the same planet as the MM releases, for sound or cost.

I agree with Viridian.

If you must buy Blue Note reissues, and cannot justify Music Matters, see if you can find your favorite artist on Mosaic box set. They work out to about $15.00 a disc if that particular reissue is not in too high a demand.

Mosaic box sets vary in price but not too much in quality. I like all of my Mosaics, have about 20 box sets I guess. That being said, they are about 60% the quality of the Music Matters Jazz reissues but probably twice as good as the Scorpio's.

even though i love good vinyl reissues, the blue note stuff sounds uniformly excellent on CD(way better than the scorpio pressings). the japanese mini lp cd's rival the music matters lp's for sure.
