I have been eyeing it up as part of the larger 7CD boxset, but it appears to have taken a price-hike recently... I may be looking at that option, Fergus...

The 7 cd set is worth getting if you can get it cheaply and if you already have the Blomstedt/SFSO cycle.

The 7cd set or the Blomstedt/SFSO cycle? If it's the SFSO set you should get it and it will jump to number one, believe me it's that good.
