If this is the Madge OC that was recorded live in Holland and release on LP
about 15 years ago, it's surprisingly good, considering who the pianist is.

Madge is a pianist who evidently loves these large, challeneging works,
but really doesn't have the technique to make them sound pertformable,
much less easy.  His Phillips set of Busoni was a major letdown and his
Chopin/Godowsky etudes are, by all accoiunts, pretty terrible too.
