Recommend Well-Recorded Hard Bop Jazz on CD?


Can you recommend some well recorded Hard Bop Jazz CD's? (Remasters) I have some of the JVC 20bit K2's, as many as I could find. Many have been sold out for years. Have some JVC k2 Cd's of Sonny Rollins, Art Blakey, Coltrane, Miles, Bill Evans etc. Not many out there left to be had. The Columbia jazz recordings (Miles etc) are for the most part excellent recordings. Example: "Miles Davis Qunitet. 1965-68-- if you listen to CD's and don't have this box set, you are missing out on an excellently recorded cd set of great music. Another: the "Miles Davis and John Coltrane, The Complete Columbia Recordings" is another set of excellent music and excellent recordings. Individually too, many of the Columbia CD recordings on jazz are very nice. For sound quality, the Blue Note jazz and RVG Remasters series is hit and miss (mostly miss imo). The music itself is awesome, but many of the recordings are tilted up in the highs and lacking overall sonic weight and bass,(the recordings sound thin), but I own quite a few of these recordings because the artists were too great and their contributions to the Hard Bop genre and Jazz in general are too significant to pass up.

Any suggestions of other well recorded, good sounding, Hard Bop Jazz on CD? (that are still available) Thanks.

Have you considered going vinyl? There are original releases available. The Original Jazz Collections (OJC) re-issues are available and often better than the CDs. The new remasters can be very good. Unfortunately, as you know, the original CDs of this era jazz were often done pretty poorly.
Kenny Garrett "Sketches of MD: Live At the Iridium"

Roy Haynes "Birds of A Feather"
Red Rodney, "Then and Now" CheskyJD79. Red takes classic tunes from bop's early years and updates them to '90's versions. Red was a seminal bopper and this was one of his last recordings. Great music very well recorded.
Sonny Clark; Sonny's Crib: Donald Byrd, trumpet; Curtis Fuller, trombone; John Coltrane, tenor saxophone; Sonny Clark piano; Paul Chambers, bass; Art Taylor, drums. Blue Note 97367 is so tough, I am going to jamm it twice.
