As for the quality of the CBS Masterworks CDs: I have had no difficulties whatsoever. I have two Bolling suites that are flawless (other than the tape hiss of the original analog master). Of course, this may just mean that the QC/QA is better for compact discs than LPs. All the CBS/Sony CDs are currently manufactured in Japan, for what it's worth. By the way, the performances are very good too. I especially like the Bolling/Rampal suite for flute and jazz piano (MK33233).
