IMHO both the Ogdon and the Donohoe knock the Ohlsson into a cocked hat.
Ogdon is available in his volume of the Phiips Great Pianists series.  I
believe the Donohoe is (shamefully) OOP.

Aithgouh I don't think the Hamelin is quite in the same leagie as the
above, it's still an improvement on the Ohlsson, which I really don't much
care for at all.
