Mapleshade recordings

Hi, most of the recordings offered by Mapleshade are quite good, but there are some to avoid. They do have a policy of if you are not satisfied with a disc, you can return it for a full refund. I don't think I would invest in the whole collection, since the quality of music and recording varies greatly. I think I would try a few at a time, they give a discount for four or more discs at a time (at least I think that's what it is). Some are very enjoyable, some not so much. Like I say, try a few first.

There are a couple that I like.

Electric Blues Doctor Live
ARC Choir
Sunny Sumter with the Larry Willis Quarter
Also, there are some samplers.

I agree with Islandmandan. The quality of the music and performances vary widely.

Clifford Jordan, Live at ethels is a amazing recording live, and killer jazz...

I'm a vinyl guy, this cd I love!

Jfrech is right - Live at Ethels is really good, and is especially good for comparing different gear in your system.

Also agreed about how some are not so good. Mostly, they are very good though.

I've been wanting to get the ARC Chior but with along with three others to take advantage of the discount. I'll check out the ones you mention Gsm18439 - thanks.

The sampler is a good place to start.
