Sometime in the not too distant future there will be a new version out there for fans to enjoy. Floyd Cooley has plans to release a live performance w/ the SFS and Seji Ozawa conducting from the late 70's. This is a fantastic performance and worth the bucks if and when it makes it to the open market. If I remember correctly this would be the same Gronitz F he recorded his" Romantic Tuba" album on.

As for recordings already on the market, John Fletcher/LSO will get my vote as well for beauty of sound and line. Michael Lind's recording is also a favorite.
