:I just finished listening (again) to the entire disc, at leasure, and loved it all. 'Beni Mora' and 'Japanese Suite' were both highly enjoyable, and this 'The Planets' may turn into my fave.
I LOVE the 1978 Boult recording (with the LPO), and Davis's is often VERY much like it, especially in 'Uranus', my favorite movement. He does use slower tempos in Mercury, which I love, and in Jupiter, which I mostly like and probably will get used to.
Excellent multichannel recording by Chandos and orchestral playing by the BBC Phil.
This may turn into my favorite."
