Riddled with arthritis, pretty much dead of cancer and and still grinding it out. Fatty can’t fathom a cunt like Pogorelich taking the piss out of him.

The rach chopson and carnival reissues all seem to be made from suboptimal pressings for that era.
Naxos is predatory with the rights on these weirdly, (they blocked my efforts on the LP reissues even) but I hope someone hunts down some good quality pressings and puts them on a torrent or something.

1938 Gilels gives a speech, also shreds fragment of Tchaik 1
Imo he wasn’t nearly the same pianist after 1947 or so cuz da crazy amount of playing in crap conditions he did during WWII fucked him up
