I've always enjoyed an old LP of his which might be available as a CD, but
I don't know. It was called "Capricico" and was a collection of 'program'
music.
Unlike others who had to study old treatises to find out that Bach's music
(and others' from that period) should be played with a touch of inegal
and lightness or dancing where appropriate, rather than in sewing machine
fashion as was the conventional style back then, Kipnis instinctinctively
knew this and played in a looser style from the beginning.
For his own "Selective Current Discography" at his website, he chose this
listing: http://people.mags.net/kipnis/ik2.html
By clicking any album cover, you can hear a portion of a piece from that
album.
The home page for that website is:

As someone who loves to do 4-hand piano, I've been wondering what's been
the reception for the Kipnis-Kushner Duo's "Dance for 4 Hands" CD released
this last November.
