It will be 100 years old in August, and has been nicely re-restored, using newer techniques. It was posted yesterday on YouTube's Private Reserve channel. The prior restoration and the 1921 acoustic recording are available on that channel as well.
His 'Nimrod' comes in at 2:53, up from 2 minutes flat in the acoustic recording. Boult and Barbirolli took it at 3:45 and 4:15, respectively and Bernstein at a whopping 6:08!
