Surprised there is no love for Glenn Gould here.
But I'll throw in some must haves.
Goldbergs '81 analog not digital version
Music of the Renaissance and Baroque 2 cd set
Also what on vinyl was considered a demonstration disc(try and find one!) Cluytens Debussy's Jeux
And I happen to be a big fan of Baroque played with high cholesterol style rather than on blood thinner so I'll add Vivaldi's L'Estro Armonico by the Berlin Philharmonic. Often making music is very different from academic archeology. And let's face it no one will ever know what contemporaries of the early music and baroque composers really heard. Though it is fun to speculate. But not too much.
