    Preach it brother. Please continue to do the level matched shoutouts of all the other Classic titles vs. MMJ. Well done. Takes courage to speak the truth to the “Choir.”

    So true! This video is overdue!

    The Blue Note Classic Reissues sound so good to me that I don’t have any interest in in the Music Matters.

    I agree with you Mike, if you’ve spent over $100 on an audiophile release it’s natural that you want it to sound better than the $25 release. I’ve bought every Classic so far and I’ve been very very impressed. Amazing value.

    Love your videos, agree 100%, please continue, your channel really adds great information to the vinyl community.

    I like this guy! On other channels, I only hear about exotic reissues, inflated prices and artificial exclusivity & scarcity . I have really come to dislike that whole "buy now or cry later" mantra that most sellers (and buyers) preach these days and I refuse to buy into it; not with all those glorious old records at dumping prices all over the place, still. There, that was my little rant. :-)

    Great information. I totally agreed with you that there is only small difference among two production records.

    Mike, that's great information! I recently became more interested in collecting audiophile releases and missed the Music Matter series. But as I understand Joe Harley was part of that and I have been collecting the wonderful Tone Poet releases. I've been watching your videos lately and have got to say you are a straight shooter and just speak truth about what's going on with these releases and I totally agree with your assessment. I also placed an order online from your store. So kudos for having a wonderful store as well!

    Thank you for the video. I really enjoy your straight talk on these releases. The prices on some of these records are hideously insane.

    Awesome video Mike. Thoroughly enjoyed this!

    Great video. Spot on. I’ve bought a few of the classic series and they sound great.

    Appreciate this update... especially as I don't own any MMJ and now know it's OK 😉

    Thanks for the excellent non-biased assessment of this subject Mike. Your candor is appreciated and with the classic series titles i have bought are great sonically and on par with my Music Matters pressings.

    Like the shoot-out series, especially the Blue Notes as they went so many re-issues. I have a bunch of the 70s two-fers, and a lot of the mid-90s 180 gram, and now the Classic and Tone Poets. Will be doing my own shoot out soon.

    Mike, thanks for this one. Keep rambling. Your "rambling" is educating. Much appreciated.

    Something to also consider, a few years ago Kevin Gray upgraded his mastering gear and reviewers are stating that the improvement is obvious, the early MM are probably mastered from his old gear where the 80s and classic series are from his new gear.

    I think people assume more expensive = better, so there's a bias going into the comparison.

    If I was the guy who came into the store, i'd be thinking, "shit he made a whole video about our conversation.. I gone and done it now."

    Universal owns jazz labels Verve, Decca, Impulse, Blue Note, Mercury/EmArcy, Chess/Cadet, and Capitol. Wondering how many original masters from those labels went up in smoke during the big fire. They also have distribution rights from Concord for Prestige, Riverside, Contemporary, Savoy, and Veejay. That's a lot of jazz labels!
