And yet I can't resist

I hope I have caught the few of you who haven't yet left your
computers and nearly killed yourselves running red lights to get to
the music store and buy Beethoven's 9th.

Not in any imaginable universe am I learned in matters of classical
music, but of the two recordings of the 9th I have given special time
to, the Georg Solti (1972) Chicago Symphany Orchestra version is
better.  Plus it has the much more distinct distinction of having been
recommended to me by a one-time next door neighbor whose vita was
fairly topheavy with music-related accolades.
