The Beecham looks amazing value for £15. Thanks for the tip on that one. Do like a bit of Bax and Bantock too. Coincidentally I was watching Ken Russell's Delius film (Song of Summer) last week. It is an odd little film (I think it is the sound recording that does it) but the best of his composer biopics I think.

Love your LVB analysis. Wish I had the time for that much detailed listening of one symphony. The early (63) Karajan recording is a case of first love for me. I do play the Celli / MPO one from time to time.

Queen 2? Right on. I can take most of the albums for what they are up to and including The Game but yes the first three at least are corkers. I could happily dispense with quirky half of NATO I'm afraid. At the time I dismissed them almost entirely after Sheer Heart Attack. Not enough weight in the guitars.
