Regular Blue Note reissues quality?


I've picked up a couple of the Music Matters reissues and they are amazing and they better be for $50 a pop!
Since I can't buy all of those I'm looking for other BN titles I don't have for a little less.
At my local chain record store they have a lot of brand new standard vinyl Blue Notes for $9-$12. Does anyone know anything about them? How they sound, digital or analog master, etc.?
Any info is appreciated.

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.
I agree Grimace. When the Music Matters and Acoustic Sounds Blue Note reissues are gone and everyone figures out what they missed, the price will skyrocket.

I ordered every title from both companies, absolutely amazing stuff.
