Albert Roussel - Le Festin de l'araignée [Ernest Ansermet, L'Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, 1954]

Ominously groovy cover design.

There was a back up tape recorder running at this 1954 session, suitably far away from the main recorder for the two tapes to form a true stereo image when Synched in 1966 for the Richmond, and then in the 70s for the Decca Eclipse and Japan King pressings. The King is the best vinyl, all 3 issues are the same master as far as I could ascertain.

Roussel and Ansermet are a good match. This is fun all the way.
