At the risk of getting myself into hot water, I must say that I've come
to the conclusion that anything resembling the words "world premiere
recording" on a CD should be ignored. Sure, it -may- be true. But in
my experience -nobody- checks at all and its a complete toss-up.
There! That was nice and neutral, eh? Eh?
