There are only a handful of tracks I'd be that precious about. Count your blessings I didn't dictate the performer, label and pressing, . . . though I can't recommend tracking down Jan Guillou performing Mussorgsky on Organ on the Dorian label highly enough.

Aural heaven.
Seriously, listen to this
Which is Jan performing The Promenade [a movement in PaaE preceding Great Gate] on an Organ that fills a cathedral and has pipes up to 32' in length that go down to the 8-10Hz range [the annotation to this youtube even notes it].
It deserves at least an uncompressed, properly mastered CD and a full range set of speakers.
Most decent pressings of the 1812 Overture have live cannon fire fer chrissakes.
