Colin Davis's first recording of Elgar's 1st Symphony was in a 1985 rare LP that I recently found in my favourite shop in London. It's a first rate recording and performance, taken at the Royal Albert Hall in a gala event to raise funds for the Oxfam Aid of Famine Relief in Ethiopia and Sudan. The BBC Symphony simply glows in the splendour of the Albert Hall.
