Are you talking about the Shaw/Atlanta recording of the Firebird? I think that was the first digital recording released on LP (Telarc). In CD form, it still sounds pretty good, although it's not an exciting performance.
The Maazel/Cleveland Rite on Telarc is a different animal entirely. Well, like the Shaw recording, it does have that infamous "Telarc bass drum." But it is an exciting performance that appears not to have been multi-miked, with very good imaging. It also features VERY prominent trombone glissandi, for which Maazel slows down. Now **that** attracted attention in some of the reviews. I like it!
