I can't think of one contempory commercial recording that does this piece justice (oh, will I take a beating for that statement here at TM).

Not from me. I've heard many recordings of good players playing the piece but none that satisfies me. But then, Robin, upon reflecting, it's an incredibly personal piece, isn't it? I can't imagine anyone else playing it in a way that would satisfy me yet that is probably true for anyone who really knows the piece (and I don't mean just technically).
It truly is unlike any other piece in the repertoire in that regard. The more you get to know it, the less other people's versions make it happen for you.
