Lennie B was as mad as a box of frogs, but a great conductor. This recording of the Enigma Variations is worth it for the outlandishly slow Nimrod variation alone, but the rest is wonderful too. Playing of the BBC Symphony orchestra is superb. Rumours are that the players wanted to lynch Lennie for his unconventional pace. That would have been a pity. This remains one of the best recordings available.
