I couldn't agree more about Zacharias,Don, though I often the best
recordings are only available as special imports.  His Mozart and Schubert
are up there with the best of them IMO and his Scarlatti discs are simply
sensational.  For anyone with a yen to hear Scarlatti on the piano these
discs are a must- equalled or perhaps surpassed only by Marcelle Meyer.
