I cannot remember who recorded it, but I remember an old TEN INCH (now THAT's OLD-OLD) 33 1/3 r.p.m. recording of Le Sacre du Printemps (' may have been Leopold S.??) where the french horns demonstratively executed all of the notes in those written out glissandos (as if they were "melodic" notes). To make it even more humorous, the conductor sort of "stopped the music" to allow the horns to do this AND the horns had microphones RIGHT ON THEM...

...' couldn't stop laughing, and I had to call all of my friends and play it for them over the phone. Sorry, ' got off the subject of the inquiry.
