There are many out there, but here are a few of my favorites (I'm a huge CSO fan, by the way):
Must haves for tuba players:
Symphonie Fantastique-CSO/Solti
Planets-LAPH/Mehta
John Williams Suites-LSO/?????
Bruckner 4-CSO/Barenboim
Mahler 3-NYPH/Bernstein
Mahler 5-CSO/Solti
Planets-LSO/????? (not Previn)
Pictures at an Exhibition-LSO/Abbado
Engima Variations-CSO/Solti
Wagner Overtures-VPO & CSO/Solti
Any LSO recording of Star Wars
Shostakovich 5-NYPH/Bernstein
Shostakovich 7-CSO/Bernstein
I have more, but I'm sure that I've already put down some controversial recordings.
