    Best series going right now in the expansive jazz repress game! I've got all of them so far, most of them bought blind and I love them all. Just A+ all around!

      What a great sounding series! The Stoughton packaging looks a bit plain compared to the Acoustic Sounds series, but the sound is amazingly good. Were there better microphones on the West Coast back then?

        Best Series ever! The sound/mastering quality is outstanding, the pressing quality by QR is outstanding as always! This is how vinyl should be done.
