RACH 3

I know, it's just me, but if I were to choose between the Rach 2 recording from 1929 (Sergei Rachmaninoff; Leopold Stokowski: Philadelphia Orchestra; listed in the National Recording Registry), and the RCA recording of the Rach 3 (Sergei Rachmaninoff; Eugene Ormandy: Philadelphia Orchestra; absent from the National Recording Registry), I would have chosen the latter. After all, it's Rachmaninoff's Third Piano Concerto, which was premiered in the US.
