Mapleshade......

[phatster]

Are the CD's truly that good?{Nevermind their cork-sniffers componets} What say you....

I loved it when they sent us CDs to give away at the Fests. Great music, and everything that 'they' promised us CDs could and would be...

I was given a complimentary one at the RM Audiofest a couple of years ago and they are very nice sounding.I use it as a reference cd.

You know Pierre will have a good recording. Nothing there ever impresses me though.

I prefer to hear great musicians performing important music, even if the sound isn't so great.

You may well like something in the catalog, but I would not listen twice to any of the ones I've heard.

If the music moves me, whatever it may be, I consider that music important to me. My musical taste is as varied as the Mapleshade catalogue.

I hope you always have whatever music it is that is important to you.

I have lots of Mapleshade CDs. Generally, I think the sound is outstanding, with some exceptions. The first one I bought is still my favorite:

This is an exceptionally well-recorded session, and if you have any interest in sitar music whatsoever, I think it's probable you'll like it.

Thanks for the feedback......I think I will try a few.Will report the results.

I've tried some of their CDs...sonically they sound quite good - it's just the musicianship/artist can be hit or miss - some CDs I've kept and play, others I thought were bland and got rid of.
