and can deal with getting up every 8 min. or so, try Music Matters Blue Note 45s.
I thought I was done with 45s ( a royal PITA ) but a friend of my showed up with bunch of his Music Matters 45 releases and I decided to order some. ( before this I only had one MM45: Kenny Drew's Undercurent which I still prefer my MM33 release on this particular title) I've been picking up a few of my favourites. These tend to sound a bit better than AP's Blue Note of Prestige releases or even Classic Record's 45s because I suspect these guys are bit more selective in terms of master tape condition. Beautifully packaged with high resolution rare Francis Wolf's photos inside gatefold jacket.

Thanks! I have a lot of those already on the AP Blue Note and Prestige series reissues and since I'm not one to own dual copies of a record, maybe I'll fill in a few of the ones I don't own with the MM 45's.
Indeed, AP has a few Mobley Blue Note ( and Prestige label issues ) but those MM 45s I've posted are not the dupes. I hate to own duplicates except the album I love like this one. :P
MM33 hands down sounds the best surpassing that of AP45 reissue. ( From what I understand, they found a better master tape than any of the reissues I own )
Anyways, MM is finally calling it a quit. Here is their remaining 45 catalogue.
The pricing on some of the titles have already gone up.
I am planning to pick up a few more Horace Silver titles next year.

Thanks for the clarification. The MM 45 catalogue does duplicate about a dozen or so of the AP 33 reissues that I have, but that still leaves a lot more that I don't. I'll have to comb thru that list and see if I can find a half dozen or so to put on my want list.
