We could all write down lists (in our favorite genres--jazz, classical, rock/pops) of the best musicians of all time, compared to whom most other musicians would pale, but that would not answer the original question, which I believe pertained to good-sounding labels and titles within those labels.As a general rule, Mapleshade has some very good sound and some good musicians. Clifford Jordan, Larry Willis, and Harold Ashby (who played with Ellington) are good examples, though there are many others. With Mapleshade, there is sometimes a sense of very spirited, albeit less-than-world-class, performances in very immediate sound, but that is very similar to the live experience, where performances can be hit-or-miss as well.
Some people may think that Mapleshade recordings are a bit hot (of course, this varies with the recording), but I have found many that are very immediate and not too hot.
Best,
