Your favorite Sheherazade LP ?

I heard a 1962 recording of Eugene Ormandy conducting the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra this weekend at my father-in-law's house which was brilliant! I forget the record label, but it had a scematic of the orchestra layout on the back and all the recording details. I've been looking for it, and would appreciate any guidance you could provide. Or is there a different recording which is more highly recommended?

I also think the Reiner RCA is terrific for both interpretation and sound quality.
  
FWIW the last Penguin Guide I have says it "stands out"  among many other superb recordings of this piece, and gave a Rosette to the RCA SACD version.
