Re: Ron's site is great...

Ron's site is great -- and it's useful for folks to see the labels. There are plenty of anomalies, though; for instance, some records were held for later release -- so one cannot go by recording date alone to figure out which label corresponds with a first/early pressing.

Plenty of other quirks abound which are interesting but ancillary to the music/artistry.

Someone posted a great article in the past 24h on RVG. I commented that it really was the partnership between RVG & Lion that created the sound, and other RVG-only (sans Lion) mastering is a bit different than the BN sound. The interview does indicate that Lion *liked* RVG's sound... so RVG wasn't just following instructions. Their tug-of-war resulted in some great stuff. Lion had amazing vision.

All the links you posted have great info. I just did my own tally of all Blue Note LPs (including Japan-only releases) and realized I have 71% 'em.... and a bunch of those I don't have are compilations or some later music that I'm not terribly interested in. Yikes. I didn't realize it had gotten so high!
