I listened to it again (after typing my post), and this recording gets my pulse going unlike any other. Hey--I grew up listening to the 1939 Toscanini, so that should tell you something.
News flash--it was in fact re-released some time ago on CD. I discovered a few (used) CDs still available on Amazon. Not cheap, though.
Like I said, the vibrato/non-vibrato "controversy" is not the point here. It's really about how these conductor-less musicians get to the the heart of the score better than all the Big Boys. Almost as if they were playing chamber music, but a lot louder.
