With regards to Prokofiev's R&J:

My favorite has always been Ozawa's with the Boston Symphony.  You will get
the rich lower end that you want as well as some wonderfully refined playing.
I've never tired of this performance.

Don't listen to the anti-Ozawa ditto-heads--he *can* be boring in some music,
but here the conductor turns out a special performance.
