while there are definitely labels that have a high percentage of great sound, he is correct in saying that it depends on the record. not the pressing, but the actual individual record that you have in your hands. (though it could be said of any kinda record i guess. i don't CALL records hot stampers but all records are not created equal.)
i can play 10 DGG records from the same era and in the same near mint condition and maybe get one truly superior record.

What are some of the best classical guitar records or artists to look for? Segovia is obvious but I don't know enough about the "scene" and the highlights in it.

i picked up this Rostropovich/Britten album over the weekend, it's pretty amazing. i think this LP was referred to upthread maybe?
