Several Lonehill and Gambit issues were copped by other PD labels, Solar, Essential Jazz Classics, etc.

I just figured it was the same people issuing the same stuff on differently named labels. Not true?

Not Now is definitely bottom of the barrel.  NOTHING is as bad as their releases.

And how do you feel about the sound quality of Acrobat/Trapeze boxes?

Acrobat is also OK soundwise, and I really like the care that goes into their packaging, with recording dates and original release info carefully presented.  Their packages tend to be complete and very well thought out, and they are a go-to for me.  Understand that none of the PD labels is going to be great soundwise, but some are certainly better than others.  Real Gone (the European PD one, now dba Reel to Reel) made drastic improvements in their sound quality over time.

Thanks John!

That was my assumption as well, but I guess we'll never really know ... 

Thanks @EKE BBB for the background info on FSR etc.
