This is great! I have some Bach CDs (Glenn Gould, cello suites, lute suites, violin partitas, double-violin concerto, etc.) but I've generally felt myself limited by lack of knowledge (and budget). Looks like there's some great recommendations in there to explore.

Whoo, complete works! I feel like a kid in a candy store.

This is good, and it goes without saying that Bach rules - though, always finding something to grouse about, would it be so much to ask to have scores linked to the works and not just recordings? I'm pretty sure they're all public domain by now.

Don't mind me. Typically as soon as I find an exhaustive resource like this it takes me ten seconds before I say "but why couldn't they have made it even better?" Thanks, Gyan.

As someone once said, "A bad performance of Handel is awful. A bad performance of Bach is still Bach."
