Review: Here it is: The most famous audiophile "classical" recording of all time, mainly thanks to The Absolute Sound, which has been hyping the original "Shaded (and/or "White") Dog" for around 25 years. It even received the "cover treatment" and a big article in issue 108. Scheherazade was one of the finest RCA "original recordings" made in the U.S. It has all their unique strengths, but with fewer, and less audible, weaknesses. It isn't RCA's "best classical recording", let alone "the best classical recording of all time", but the paralyzing sonics in the 4th movement might still make this a "must have" LP for many listeners.
