Idomeneo (1969)
This TV production is from 1970 and the color picture is accordingly rich and beautiful. The sound however is below average for the era, but still ... twiddle the knobs, turn the bass up a little, and get acclimated. This is a fully traditional production, actually very pleasing in that regard.
