Mahler on vinyl - your favorite


The only one I own at this point is the 4th by Analog Productions with Fritz Reiner/Chicago Symphony.

What are your favorite Mahler symphonies on vinyl? Looking to add to the record collection.

Thanks!

Thanks all! Listening to these on Qobuz and checking availability on used market. 

#2 Solti on London is gripping. Agree on the Elly Ameling Haitink 4th and Horenstein 3rd. But honestly Mahler is better on digital due to the huge dynamic range and the unavoidability of ticks and pops distracting during the pianissimos. 
You must listen to the Zander #6 and #9 with the Boston Philharmonic Youth Orchestra. 

Yeah, I love the Solti Mahler 2nd as well. The problem with me and the Solti/Decca Mahler Eighth is that I just find the Eighth perhaps,errrr, a trifle overblown.

Listened to Mahler 4 with Bernstein. Can’t say that I like it. Will continue exploring other symphonies from the list above by Bernstein.

@crustycoot no issues with pops and ticks they won’t bother me too much as long as they’re occasional and minor. 

Mahler 1st with Solti and the London Symphony (better than the later Chicago disc.)

Mahler 9th Barbirolli, on Classics for Pleasure label.  Outstanding performance and sound.
