The sound on the LSO Chandos recordings with Hickox wasn't so great (in fact, the Sea Symphony recording that he did earlier was a better performance--except for the baritone--and had much better sound).
But the other Hickox performances are really good, and I won't listen to any version of #2 except the Hickox, because it's the original edition and includes some wonderful material in the last movement that unfortunately got chopped from the revision.
