Best pressing of Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto?

I’m ready to start into the classical side of my vinyl collection, and I’ll start with my favorite piece? Any recommendations on a well-recorded, played, and -mastered vinyl pressing of this? Should I start with the '56 Heifetz? Or the Van Cliburn?

I certainly wouldn't start with Van Cliburn, as that's the piano concerto!  I'll look through my collection to see if there's any other recording on vinyl that I like as much as the RCA Heifetz..

@rcprince Curses! I meant Leonid Kogan's 1960 version.

Thank you for looking through the collection, though.

Joshua Bell. Great excitement. I heard him live a few years ago and even though he's probably performed it 200 times, it was still filled with energy.
