who was a star young conductor at that time pre S. America, Hague and Scotland, etc. His Fournier DGG record is another classic.

All these are classics to be heard by the younger musicophiles. Not just Yo Yo and young beautiful ladies such as Bond. You know what I mean, right? I agree with your comment on disorganization, which applies to my live Cleveland FM cassettes.

Excerpt from linked Szell discography (amazing compilation). I had the date of the cassette copy wrong (5.10 not 5.1--not clear on announcement by WCLV FM Cleveland). Again, that's an interesting version, and I will relisten re how "right" the performance is and how soft Rostropovich is playing.
