AGREE! OMG! Cziffra - one of the very great ones! I wanted (and got) every note he recorded. The big EMI/Warner set is a treasure trove, but there is much out their recorded privately.

I have this in the 40 CD Box set. It's just mind boggling what he could do at the piano. I think the majority of these were recorded for Hungaroton (1, 2, 8, 9 and 12 were missing). I am assuming that he completed the set for EMI. However, EMI may have wanted hm to do a complete set. I'm not sure.
