Now spinning this LP, prompted by soulpope's Géza Anda records earlier in this thread:

I love the absolute directness of Anda's Chopin playing. No perfume, no fussiness. "Manly" Chopin.

Not that other approaches to this music are off-track. It's just that Anda draws out aspects of this music that others sometimes overlook -- a sort of pithy strength.

Geza Anda superb with Chopin .... btw he ain't no slouch with Schumann and Schubert either ....
