Happens to a lot of old guys (pianists too!) - they just start to slow down!
Seriously, I didn't know you were into the Paganini concertos! Of the ones you listed I used to own both Rabin performances - excellent indeed - and I'm familiar with the Tretyakov performance too (also excellent), although I did not mention these performances because the OP seemed to be specifically interested in SQ. I still contend that Mullova is in this company, but again, the Szerying performances were the ones which had received the hi-rez treatment, even though, as you say, his is far from a new recording.
