Having worked for RECKLESS RECORDS in London for over 20 years as one of their principal Vinyl and CD buyers (one of the best secondhand record shops in the West End) and having in excess of 4,050 posts on Amazon (CDs, DVDs, BLU RAYs - Hall Of Fame Reviewer six times etc) - as you can imagine I have come across a huge number of reissues - some far more worthy than others.
To that end I've collated together these SOUNDS GOOD MUSIC BOOKS as guides to Exceptional CD Remasters offering up in-depth reviews on a wide range of titles. And it doesn't have to cost the earth to Sound Good either – you just need to know which CD is the right issue to buy.

Many entries in this large and unique book cost less than £10 while others are under a fiver. And even if some Box Sets/Deletions have acquired a price tag - because they're the best I've included them along with artists/titles that deserve your attention…
I've covered both Year Volumes and Genres and regularly update each. To date (February 2022), there are 25 titles in the series - cut and paste B00LQKMC6I and it will bring you to my Author's Page on Amazon.
Enjoy The Reads - MARK BARRY (2022)
