I won't nominate anything avant-garde for the unseasoned listeners among this community, more like the popular stuff first and then branch out from there...
Would that work?

That's exactly what I'm looking for. One of my biggest obstacles in getting more into classical has been not knowing which recording of which piece I should check out. I'd love it if there was a place for people to nominate specific recordings.
And with you, me,
Zyrada and
Trollheart, it looks like we already have four participants.
