Hi Rod.
Well, looking at the classical list it's really a very good start for
when they were pressed. The thing is that classical has made some great
recordings since then, and some of these recordings will not be what you
would expect. But yes, it looks like a good starting point. I would have
probably added a lot more to it like Beethoven's 9th (unless I missed
it), and many choral works Like Gounod.
