Having lived with a Wagner fanatic for many years I at first endured the Ring but after a few listenings came to appreciate what Wagner was about. I've always liked Verdi & Puccini but Wagner is on a different plane altogether. The four CD sets that make up the Goodall ring are in my opinion stunning. Rita Hunter and the rest of the cast were at the top of their game and Reginald Goodall's conducting is amazing. Unlike Solti (which would have to be my other recommendation) who drives the operas on at a quite a lick, Goodall's tempo throughout finds that little something extra within the score.
