Trustworthy Vinyl Reissue Labels
I have been listening to a lot of vinyl this year, so I though I would update this list (mostly for my own reference – updated 10.2017).

ThirdMan Records
Vinyl Reissue Labels that are trustworthy (but likely not sourced from original analogue masters – all analogue nonetheless)

Superior Viaduct (some are AAA)
Vinyl Reissue Labels that are trustworthy (but may be high res-digital sourced unless otherwise stated)
