The best George Bizet Carmen on vinyl

Can anybody (everybody) recommend what they consider to be the best (vinyl) rendition of Carmen?

Did Maria Callas ever do Carmen? I thought not but an acquaintance claims he has heard an mp3 with her singing from Carmen.

Thanks

"Did Callas ever do Carmen?" Google or check out some of the internet review sites. Some folks think she was the 'best' Carmen. :-)

Personally I like Maginnes/Domingo/Maazel on Erato.

Beecham's version is lovely as well, but in mono.

FWIW.
