A Beethoven piano sonata cycle, which rules them all, does not exist.

beyond a doubt!

my runners-up would be, at this time:

Wilhelm Kempff (DG mono early 50s)
Friedrich Gulda (Amadeo 1967)
Maria Grinberg
Es wollt ein meydlein grasen gan:
Fick mich, lieber Peter!
Und do die roten röslein stan:
Fick mich, lieber Peter!
Fick mich mehr, du hast dein ehr.
Kannstu nit, ich wills dich lern.
Fick mich, lieber Peter!
