"This is arguably the finest sung BORIS GODUNOV on discs. It features the unexcelled Boris of Pirogov, the superb Pimen of Maxim Mikhailov, and the shattering Simpleton of Ivan Kozlovsky. Melodiya later re-recorded the role of Boris with Mark Reizen, inserted him for Pirogov, and released the performance again. (That issue is also available I think.)
