Can we list the better labels? Chesky? Telarc?


We all know that there is a lot of difference in the quality of recordings. For example, I've always found that Chesky and Telarc were "better" or more "true" labels. Bluenote seems mixed to me. What say you? Can we develop a list of some of the best music labels (and maybe some of the ones to avoid).

EMI for conistently remarkable programming.

Whoops, I meant ECM! Well, I got the "E" right!

Puntamayo discs usually sound excellent. This is world music and though you may not know what the music is about it sounds great! I never pass up a chance to buy one in the used bins or new! The label features artists from Latin America, North America, Africa, and Asia!
