what's the deal with Applause records? I grabbed Jimmy Smith Plain Talk on Applause for a couple bucks, and it sounds fine, great... What's the deal?

Applause is official or unofficial or what?

thanks in advance, and for all Blue Note OG-only maniacs: it was 2 dollars.

do you mean official as in original pressed?

or do you mean official as in just being a blue note record??

the majority of the stuff i got is all original pressed..

i've never heard of the pressings on applause records....

likely because i dont have many blue note pre-1964

oldest probably being the stereo 70's repressing of juju and speak no evil from wayne shorter
