As someone who owns a near-complete run of original Belock Everest classical Lps,I never bought the DCCs,and now we have the Classic Records issues.How do these compare to each other ?

For what it's worth, the two high-resolution DVD-Audio discs I have of the Everest material from
Classic Records were very well transferred by Bernie Grundman. But, the Everest transfers for CD in
the 1990's also weren't bad, I think the late David Smith at Sony oversaw the playback of some of
the 35mm masters.

All very interesting..which reminds me, I need to bother Compendia again about some old royalties they still owe me for the stuff I did when they were still Intersound. And fascinating to know that Madacy is no longer a pirate label. A lot of their "rights" were very debatable, and there was a time when you could find the identical recordings on Madacy and Laserlight, right down to the clicks and pops from the original LPs they stole.

It's based in Nashville, TN, now and still is overseen by Michael Olsen. They still own the rights to the Vanguard catalogue, and I know independently that portions of this catalogue are being exploited privately online (as there is no formal agreement as of yet, I believe, between the parties, I won't go into the details). As for the Everest jazz and classical catalogues, of which there has been recent discussion, these were purchased from Bernie Solomon by Madacy Music Group (now Madacy Entertainment LP) based in Montreal, and SOME of the 35mm masters have been licensed to Classic Records of Los Angeles. Madacy owns all worldwide rights to these recordings and master tapes.
