I've seen the following CD of Beethoven's 6th and Schubert's 5th recommended a few times on this forum, and the Amazon reviewers rate it highly. These performances may be the best of both symphonies I've heard thus far.
His Mozart 41 is excellent. However, I do not like his recordings of the earlier/middle ones and I prefer Marriner and Mackerras for those.

Don't like Böhm. Racist little bugger. And takes Mozart and Beethoven too slow. Doesn't bring out the character if the music.

Best Beethoven 6th I've ever heard.
He was best at Strauss for some reason. He takes more liberty with Strauss' scores than with the standard repertoire.

I've always liked Bohm's Mozart symphonies. But then, I like Karl Richter's Bach.

I LIKE VON KARAJAN'S BACH! Deal with it!
Did Karajan even do Bach? Oh wait he did, just sounded like Brahms.
