Second after God
This ABM's performance of the Emperor is pretty close to "the God only can replicate it" ABM's live CD from Helsinki concert on 20.5.1969 with the Swedish Radio Orchestra conducted by Sergiu Celibidache. After hearing and/or personally attending at least 20 ABM's Emperors, from 40s' to his death, I must say that this performance (although keeping the orchestra sound a bit muted; which only enhances ABM's "out of this world" qualities) is stupendous.
