What is your ultimate Holy Grail among your vinyl LP, if u have to pick one?

[Carlo Gesualdo]

This is easy, but took me time to think about it, my ultimate LP is more than probably

Giovanni Pierreluigi Palestrina on Lyricord (a record compagnie I regards
highly has quality recording the old one from the 50-70, Welch Chorale
under the direction of James Welch, this awesome LP is from 1951 it featured a rare Masses- Missa Iste Confessor and another Masse not so rare but well done:
Missa Sine Domine (super modulum ''je suis desheritée'')

I clean it polish it whit soft cloth, I take care of it, I love it...

For me, EMI 1976, Valery Afanassiev : Liszt, sonata B minor, Sonata " Dante : I discover the b minor sonata with him...a shame never on cd...

I have a transfer. It's like sex -- more interesting when you don't have it than when you do

Th' expense of spirit in a waste of shame
Is lust in action; and till action, lust
Is perjured, murd'rous, bloody, full of blame,
Savage, extreme, rude, cruel, not to trust,
Enjoyed no sooner but despisèd straight,
Past reason hunted; and, no sooner had
Past reason hated as a swallowed bait
On purpose laid to make the taker mad;
Mad in pursuit and in possession so,
Had, having, and in quest to have, extreme;
A bliss in proof and proved, a very woe;
Before, a joy proposed; behind, a dream.
    All this the world well knows; yet none knows well
    To shun the heaven that leads men to this hell.

What?

[Mandryka]

What?

Read the pome.

The poem is irrelevant.

This, on the other hand, is a constant source of pleasure and gets played often

I guess I just assumed that Todd owned the recording in question since the title said "among your vinyl."  Any performance from a well known performer that never made it to digital is obviously a contender.

Indeed sir

You're correct.

Many of these LPs not transferred to CD have been uploaded to YouTube, as has this one.  But, compared to the competition, it's not in the top 50, IMO.  But it vastly better than his second recording in 2000, which is among the worst.
