Subtle difference(s) in recording quality among CD albums of Karel Boehlee Trio

As I briefly shared here and here, I really love music, performance, and recording quality of CD albums of "Karel Boehlee Trio"; so far I have these 10 CDs:

I already noticed some audible differences in recording quality between these 10 CD albums, but usually the MYCJ label albums are in really stunning excellent recording quality so that I use several tracks in my "Audio Sampler/Reference Music Playlist" (ref. here and here).

I recently (actually for the past one month) repeatedly and rather intensively listened to these wonderful CD albums (ripped in 44.1 kHz 16 bit intact PCM AIFF format in my digital music library, played on-the-fly upsampling encoding into 88.2 kHz by JRiver MC 31) with my latest multichannel audio setup (ref. here and here), during my almost-daily 45 min ergometer workout (300 kcal, in almost silent!) in my listening room.

Even though I always enjoyed the music performance and recording quality, as for the very subtle difference in recording quality, I found (or at least I like) the album "Secret Life" MYCJ-30561 released in 2010 would be the best for my ears and brain, in terms of sound cleanliness, sonolity, clearness, sharp and clean transient bass attacks, etc.
If anyone here would have these CDs including MYCJ-30561, what would be your subjective impression(s) on very subtle difference in recording quality among the albums?

I comment on things from time to time...but it's mostly just contributions from the two most active posters, More Watts and Ralph C...I've found a lot of good jazz from this thread, my horizon continues to expand...!
 
Playing Trilok Gurtu - Bad habits die hard
I wish every recording was as good as this, an example from YouTube (don't know how it sound, playing my own cd)
 
fyi, I've moved on due to the lack of interest in my posts over the course of a year... :cool:
Well, thanks for all your writeups, I enjoyed them...well done, found lots of new things to listen to from your posts!

Sorry to hear that - as I mentioned earlier I've only just started getting into jazz so I haven't had the chance to catch up on them, but they look to be thoughtfully written, so thank you for your contributions.

It doesn't seem like the regular posters here have much interest in what the other regulars are posting - there's barely even any "liked" posts!
