I have only one solo piano version, Richter's 1958/60 live recording issued on LP by CBS Records in the late 60's. The performance is great, but the recorded sound is pretty thin.

Would recommend checking out some of his CDs. IMO: Thread title should be "personally most interesting" rather than "best piano works".
