Two people have recommended this recording. What was your source please as nothing listed here?

Although I’m neither one of those who recommended this recording nor do I own it, I’m happy to share the product link for CDJapan here:
https://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/NEODAI-166398
(There are quite a few TowerRecords SACDs, as well as others from different labels, which are offered by several sources but aren’t listed as links on this page. It’s probably because it’s a big time commitment for the admins to keep the product links up to date. However, a product link that’s not active on this page can’t generate any commission.)

Thank you for sharing the link and information. I have ordered my copy from CDJapan with the caveat "availability to be confirmed".
Certainly not cheap as it's a proxy purchase but worth it to me as my relationship with Paavo Berglund goes way back to his days at Bournemouth, would you believe it 50 years ago!

You’re welcome. I order a lot from CDJapan and have always had good experiences with their proxy shopping service. Compared to some eBay sellers, I don’t find CDJapan/proxy particularly expensive, especially for Tower Records SACDs. In fact, it’s often the opposite. Since I’m usually impatient with waiting for CDs and don’t like long delivery times, I splurge on express shipping (DHL). The combination of DHL Express and CDJapan works really well, especially since CDJapan allows you to prepay taxes, making the delivery process super smooth and hassle-free. But of course, that’s a matter of personal preference. As for the availability of Tower Records SACDs (CDJapan/proxy), you don’t need to worry. That note is on every item there. I’ve never had any issues or found an item to be unavailable.

I have been buying almost exclusively from Tower Japan using Buyee to buy and ship it. But Tower offers another international shipping service (World Shopping) that is constantly (and annoyingly) popping up as you browse their web-site. This one is integrated through Tower. Buyee you have to have an extension attached to your browser.
