Well, let's see.
Slots 1 and 2: PJBE Greatest Hits, Vol 1 and 2.
Slot 3: Vaughan Williams Symphony 4, Stokowski and the NBC Symphony, played on the radio in March, 1943. (A disappointment--RVW's own 1937 recording is much better)
Slot 4: Shostakovich Symphony 5, Maxim Shostakovich conducting the USSR Symphony, based on Jay's recommendation during the Shostakovich thread down below. (I like it.)
Slot 5: Gershwin, An American in Paris, Dallas Symphony under Litton. The relationship between Litton's DSO and Delos keeps turning out good stuff, and Matt Good hurts my brain.
Slot 6: various works by Jonathon Romeo, a private collection from a composer friend. This will get replaced by Jay Rozen's Killer Tuba Songs when he gets around to sending it to me.
