It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

He is certainly one of the greatest artists of the 20th century. Here are a couple of recommendations beyond the usual:

For something a little unusual (for him and his recorded output, anyway), try an album called Haydn and Mozart Arias, London OS26182.

Today I listened to his recording of the Flying Dutchman, Angel 3616. This is conducted by Konwitschny.

There is a nice recording of him singing Beethoven Lieder, EMI C053-01138 M

He also made at least two recordings of Mahler's Kindertotenlieder, powerful songs that aren't done very often.
