Leinsdorf's recording of Prokofiev 5 with the great Boston Symphony Orchestra was set down by ace RCA engineer Lewis Layton. It's a measured and powerful performance that positively shines in HDTT's flawless transfer from an RCA 15 ips tape. In fact, the HDTT CD sounds much better than RCA/BMG's commercially issued CD, with all the analog nuance I remember from my fondly remembered RCA Lp. Another major 'win' from HDTT!
