I would certainly agree that on the whole the Blue Note sessions are better than those on Prestige, which also came up with some strange matchings just to see if 3 or 4 tenor players or a couple of trumpeters, etc., might turn into something worthwhile even without any rehearsal, planning, arrangements, etc. You've also brought out another good point, i.e., Alfred Lion didn't release a lot of material because he didn't think it was all that good. That kind of discrimination has not extended to subsequent owners of the catalog which have seem determined to mine those vaults for any old thing, frequently in multiple incarnations. And we as consumers keep buying based upon the label's well deserved reputation.
