@thewagnerian Was listening to Solti's Das Rheingold from that interesting vinyl archive from Boston Public Library. https://archive.org/details/vinyl_bostonpubliclibrary Clearly someone was a fan of "Schwüles Gedünst schwebt in der Luft" given the amount of pops and clicks at the start of it! 😂 It was sensational. I broke into spontaneous applause at the end. Also strangely enjoyed the orchestral arrangements on "Music of the Flower Children".

@PaulMurray If you get a chance, listen to the new remaster. One I think that actually improves on previous remasters. And if you like Dolby, Apple has the Dolby Atmos version: https://music.apple.com/gb/album/wagner-das-rheingold-remastered-2022/1651971225

@PaulMurray That resource is great by the way. It reminds me of popping into my central library in the 70s!
@PaulMurray Now look what you have done! I'm listening to the Dorati Haydn 100 :)
@thewagnerian Really, Gwyneth Jones and Thomas Stewart. Both are screamers.
