Some excellent suggestions here. The problem with some "Audiophile" labels is of course, the music. Some labels have excellent recordings, but the music is pretty forgetable. I would include Naim in this, though as always, there are exceptions. With Naim, it would be anything by Antonio Forcione.
Your favourite recording label?
Is there a a label you have found pretty much infallible? I mean by this, you could buy any CD or record and know you will enjoy it, both for the music, most important and recording quality. I am not including here, reissue labels like Speakers Corner. We are talking of new recordings and music
I have found a number which nealy hit that mark. In no particular order, Linn, Waterlilly, ECM and Opus 3.
My top pick is without a doubt, the German label Stockfisch. That is partly because they major on Singer, Songwriters, a genre I love. My favourite artists on the label are;
Sara K
David Munyon,
Allan Taylor
Eugene Ruffulo
Chris Jones
There are other excellent artists to and good compilations you could start with. My favourite of all, Sara K "Waterfalls"
So do you have a favourite label?
