I'll second that David, and what a fabulous series Gerd Berg's Reflexe was from <a href="http://www.discogs.com/label/EMI+Electrola">EMI Electrola</a> in Germany in the 1970s. There were LPs from <a href="http://www.medieval.org/emfaq/performers/binkley.html">Thomas Binkley</a> and his Studio der Frühen Musik (cover art above), <a href="http://www.overgrownpath.com/2005/05/officium-live-triumph-of-music-theatre.html">The Hilliard Ensemble</a>, <a href="http://www.bach-cantatas.com/Bio/Linde-Hans-Martin.htm">Hans-Martin Linde</a> and his Linde-Consort, Michel Piguet and the Ricercare-Ensemble für alte Musik, Zurich and, of course, <a href="http://www.overgrownpath.com/2008/01/free-music-so-whats-new.html">Jordi Savall</a> and his Hespèrion XX Ensemble with their early recordings. More history of the Reflexe series <a href="http://www.medieval.org/emfaq/cds/emi30101.htm">here.</a> As I have said before, a picture is <a href="http://www.overgrownpath.com/2008/01/album-sleeve-as-work-of-art.html">worth a thousand words</a>.
