The continuing tome.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Penguin Guide to Compact Discs 2000/2001 (Penguin Reference Books) (Paperback)
The first and still the best guide to buying classical music. This is the follow on to the last one in giving a wider range of 'best' buys. In a short time you will always save the cost of this book while you expand your musical library. The veritable 'Bible' of recommendations.

Superb update of the ultimate CD guide,
By "pspa" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Penguin Guide to Compact Discs 2000/2001 (Penguin Reference Books) (Paperback)
As has been the case ever since I began reading these wonderful guides in the late 80s, this volume updating the complete 1999 compilation of the Penguin Guide is comprehensive, entertaining, and highly informative. It contains reviews of thousands upon thousands of new and reissued CDs, which are full of wit and insight and which are up to the authors' usual high standards. The separate alphabetical listings on invididual performers, which unfortunately were omitted from the 1999 guide because of lack of space, are incredibly valuable.

Invaluable,
By Jeff Davis Maynor "Jeff" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Penguin Guide to Compact Discs 2000/2001 (Penguin Reference Books) (Paperback)
For any collector of classical music this book is a must have resource. Keeping ahead of, or even up with the amount of classical recordings in today's market is a near impossibility, but with some help from Penguin you can at least make an attempt to. I find some disagreement with some choices and know that I find they leave out some of what I consider to be good recordings, but it's mainly just personal taste, I have never been unhappy with a recording I purchased based in the recomendation of the Penguin staff.
