What you choose to do (stream or buy) is not really the point of the thread. 

 

You can ask Chris to give you moderation rights and then delete some of the "noise" from your thread.

Here's anohter interesting label, Reference Recordings. For some reason, the catalog is split on (at least) two "labels":

 

https://play.qobuz.com/label/24854

https://play.qobuz.com/label/100820

 

Their website: https://referencerecordings.com/

 

All the albums I have listened to so far have very good sound quality.

 

I came across this label while looking up Dick Hyman's albums. This "Plays Ellington" album is marvellous and has very good sound quality: https://play.qobuz.com/album/0030911105020

 

The liner notes provide some interesting comments by Hyman on the various pieces: https://archive.org/details/cd_dick-hyman-plays-duke-ellington_dick-hyman

 

There is a direct-to-disc version, but not available on Qobuz.

 

 

 

 

I don't know if they are on Qobuz or not but I really like Clark Terry's recordings for this label.

There is this album: https://play.qobuz.com/album/gxsges092ejfa

And this one (which I am listening to now and really enjoying): https://play.qobuz.com/album/0030911106324

For some reason that second album is not reference on the label's website...

 

I don't have a Qobuz account so I can't see these but the three I have in my album are Clark Terry Express, Big Band Basie, and The Chicago Sessions which I believe is just a compilation of tracks from the first 2.
