I've bought Blue Note classic series re-issues as well as some Tone Poet series. I've also bought
Music Matters Jazz
Analogue Productions / Acoustic Sounds
Speaker's Corner
Simply Vinyl
I don't bother with 45 rpms. I cba to get up every 10 minutes to flip the record, two discs per LP takes up space, they cost too much and I'm not convinced the SQ is much better than well pressed 33 rpms.
I don't buy Music Matters anymore. They are too expensive, and I received one disc which was damaged, and I cba to send stuff back to 'murica.
A while back, Blue Note classics were fairly hit and miss. I had a few duds. More recently, they have been ok. The Tone Poets I have bought have been fine.
Analogue Productions / Acoustic sounds have been the most consistently good in my experience. QRP and Kevin Gray mastering seems to be a recipe for success; I've not had a dud disc from them. They are pricey but I'd say reasonable value for the quality.
Speaker's Corner I've also found fine, maybe not quite to the standards of AP, but consistently good.
Just my experience.
