Yes; you reminded me that I would also have made that "Elektra" an absolute first choice in my survey were it not for the cuts Sinopoli sanctioned, which might bother some.
I do so agree about the later Callas "Tosca" performances. I came to the 1964 Prêtre studio recording later in life, having stupidly avoided it too long in the mistaken belief that it was too flawed to be worthy of consideration but it is riveting.
