I'm not sure that the Albinoni Adagio is my favorite of Albinoni's works (although I do really love it) but I am sure that the Gary Karr - Super Analogue Disc LP recording is the best recording of an Albinoni work of music I've ever heard.
A true audiophile extravaganza!
And, thank you for reminding me to listen to Albinoni, because I am listening to it now.
Adagio d' Albinoni
Gary Karr - Bass
Harmon Lewis - pipe-organ
