HOLY PAGANINI, BATMAN! This leaves in the shade every other performance I ever heard of this. Everyone is on fire here, just incredible!

My fave Paganini Rhapsody. And not a Chandos recording, either (praise de Lawd)--it was part of a massive recording project Readers Digest undertook with Wild, Horenstein and several other top conductors in the early 60's utilizing (as I recall) RCA's best European engineering. Some of the best sound ever waxed, and to my mind Wild equalled Horowitz with Da Rach.

Earl Wild is magnificent. I have the Readers Digest vinyl records. I ordered them via the mail in 1972 and was amazed at the wonderful music the 8 record set contained. Beethoven, Mozart, Debussy, Bach, Brahms, Chopin, etc. I still liked the Moody Blues, Led Zeplin, and other bands but this set has special music.

Dakota LEW, yes. I had a Readers Digest cassette tape of Schubert's 2nd symphony, and it was better than any other performance I have heard. I need to look for it on cd.

Yes. The sound is captured with full reverb and there is a pleasant and meaty texture to it.
