Which recording of the 1812 is the one to have?

My recording is Dorati's 1958 recording (Mercury Living Presence 436
360-2).  I think it's the only one with authentic period weaponry.  This
is the only recording of this work I have heard, but I like this one.  If
you like your 1812 to include the really big bangs, this recording can
be recommended.  The other works on this CD are Capriccio Italien and
Beethoven's Wellington's Victory.
