Most famous recording of Prokofiev's 1st concerto is probably the EMI recording by Andrei Gavrilov, which is recommended as the 1st choice in Penguin Guide for its amazing power and fire. But Richter's incandescent performance with Karel Ancerl (1954) makes even Gavrilov's version sound tame! The blazing sounds Richter creates penetrate whole orchestra and sheer force of playing is just overwhelming.
Richter's towering performance of Liszt concerto, again with Ancerl (1954), has no rivals and surpasses Richter's own later recordings (Philips & BBC Legend). Only pianist who comes close to this in brilliance is probably Byron Janis (the famous Moscow live 1962 / Mercury).
The both recordings will remain unsurpassed for sure. Recording quality is not bad for the date.
