I am also a huge fan of this Tchaikovsky Trio and have countless recordings on vinyl and CD/SACD. This particular performance was released in 1981, its release coincided with several other versions that featured big name players including Perlman/Ashkenazy/Harrell which I consider fairly boring, this particular recording did not sell well and was discontinued in a short order, I was hoping for it to reappear on CD but that did not happen for obvious reasons.
What I find attractive about this performance is unusual degree of intensity offered by all three players particularly in the final variations section, there is no star player among the three performers, all three performers appear on equal footings and there is total absence of sugar coating so common in most Tchaikovsky performances these days, I can't give you a reference among the currently available versions as a go by to describe this performance.
At the end it all comes down to personal preference and this particular performance is IMO head and shoulder above any other version that I am familiar with.
Here is a video of Oliveira performing the Trio with different partners 30 years after that recording was made, just to give you some idea of his performing style;
