Thanks, Greg. There was only one copy available, and VG+.
Just bought a Mint copy off eBay.
For a very well balanced piano sound and fantastic peformance go back to this now inexpensive 1974 recording engineered by Tryggvi Tryggvason in the Decca Studio no 3
"Albeniz: Iberia" performed by Alicia de Larrocha. It is one of the recordings that sometimes can make me believe I am facing a piano and a pianist!
Decca 448191-2

She is sometimes called La Divina del Piano. Fabulous concert pianist and an incredible improvisor.
and something more conventional.

This is why I'm on WBF. There was a spirited system diagnostics discussion and one of our best music threads broke out!
Greg! You're costing me!!
It came off this DVD:

A young Murray Perahia playing with the Academy of St. Martins in the Fields (ASMF).
I saw him playing Beet's V with ASMF at Davies Hall in San Francisco. He was also conducting.
Ya gotta buy the cd...This video is compressed so much it masks the nuances.
Is Perahia the best that ever was? Or just the best still living?

Thanks, Greg. This is a fabulous find!! I just spent the last few days listening/watching all his videos:

He's not a performer but a piano teacher, and he has a fabulous "touch". Check out this one too:
Yes. Most of these youtube videos can be enjoyed over a laptop or computer speakers, but once you get it up to a "real" system, they sound bad. I don't even want to speculate why!
Some of my favourite piano recordings are on the now defunct Windham Hill records - in particular Songs Without Words:
