Jazz recommendations on lp

can anyone provide some recommendations for jazz on vinyl.
i can't afford to waste my money on poorly mastered recordings.
recently i have found some nice columbia 6eye pressings from the Brubeck catalog (58 newport, the riddle, etc) and some of brubecks catalog from fantasy.

i'm looking for recs from the mingus, coltrane, davis and monk catalogs. horace silver, cannonball adderley, bill evans also.
if you think i'd like a particular artist, by all means let me know.

if you could be so kind would you differentiate between a vintage pressing and a re-pressing. i have no objections to buying reissues if the sound is dead-on as it was intended, but i would rather not be victim to an engineers notion of what the artist and original masters should sound like if they got it right in the first place.

thanks in advance to those that answer my plea for help

Most of the Classic Records re-issues are very good, many are outstanding. Dave Brubeck's Time out is fantastic.
Some others the I really like are Davis, Bag's Groove. Analog Productions has a good re-issue of this. They also did a good job with Bill Evans, sunday at the Village Vanguard. Ben Webester, At the Renaissanceon Analog Productions is one of my favorites. Groove Note is making some great albums: Bill Cuncliff is terrific. I bought the Anthony Wilson trio, but 2 copies had A LOT of surface noise and I sent them back. If you send me an e-mail I'll send you an excell list of my top jazz LPs with the label (most are re-issues). There are too many to list here.
