Yeah, but he hasn't done much since October of 1990.

In my experience, he is the last, or one of the last remaining classical artists who made 78s, (and here I mean actually cut 78 rpm records, not tape recordings which were subsequently dubbed to 78 - and I can't even think of anyone who did that who's still alive).  A very knowledgeable acquaintance has said the Kurt Masur made 78s but I can find no evidence of that.
