RE: Really good to hear about 3rD and 7th, those are the ones I read that were standouts. nt

I have always been a fan of his 3rd (and 1st, by the way - and he also conducts a mean Songs of a Wayfayer with FD as soloist), but I put on the 7th about a month ago for the first time (from the complete LP set I own) and was blown away. I love the 7th Symphony - I heard it for the first time on record when the Solti Chicago set was first released circa 1972 - I was a freshman living in a dorm, and a bunch of my dormmates listened to it one night and were transfixed, pretty amazing for a bunch of testosterone-addled 18 year olds. I have heard it live twice, once with de Waart conducting and once with MTT. The MTT performance was really great - especially the last movement, where Mahler parodies Wagner, had me cracking up, and I own, besides Solti and MTT, Boulez and Horenstein...but right now Kubelik's is my favorite reading.
