It's a good recording, but, honestly I feel like Rattle and the BPO hold back a bit, both on melody in the first section, and in the slow section in the middle of the piece. I've heard recordings where they've really ran with those parts and it's just incredible. The same goes for several of the other movements from this album, particularly "Saturn".
I have Mars through Neptune in .wma format, and Pluto in MP3 if you're interested. Give me your e-mail in a personal message, and I'll send you a copy of each movement, albeit one at a time in multiple messages.
In my opinion this tempo is perfect. Fast enough AND you can hear all of the technique, which is almost impossible at a faster tempo.

They lost the tempo in some sections...

Great. I downloaded this album off SpiralFrog but as that website shut down, I lost it. :)
