@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".
