About three years after Fischer's death, I was introduced to his playing by my teacher at that time, who was a good friend of Fischer's and missed him badly. He played for me private tapes that he had recorded on Fischer's visits.
I was told not to expect great accuracy, but that the sheer musicality more than made up for the slips; sadly, there was a drinking problem (as with so many musicians) which grew worse in Fischer's later years.
I have been a fan of Edwin Fischer's recordings ever since someone gave me his 1960s EMI recording of Beethoven Sonatas 8 and 23. However, his earlier recordings are much better, especially his Well-Tempered Clavier (first complete recording, I believe) and Mozart concertos.
