so I'm not totally ignorant of stereo, right?There's good and bad from every era. With regard to conductors, and even imprinting on Brahms and Beethoven with the usual '80's suspects: Karajan, Abaddo, Rattle, Barenboim, etc. I can tell you that in most cases Furtwangler and Walter--to name two from a distant era--blow the rest away.
That said, I wouldn't give up Dutoit's "modern" Ravel cycle for just about anyone from the past.
Case by case basis....
