Of course, these days, there are also hi-rez surround versions available, such as:

Principal guest conductor in Atlanta for many years, and a fine one at that. Back in the day there was a common opinion among us ASO supporters that you wanted Shaw for the big choral pieces and Lane for orchestral repertoire. He passed earlier this year, if memory serves.
