The Sonatas for Violin and Harpsichord are Bach at his lyrical best. The Flute Sonatas too.
Since you're an Lp guy, Grumiaux's Box set on Philips is perfectly fine. He has an additional single Philips lp with a couple more Sonatas that include Cello.
For the Flute Sonatas, there's a UK CRD box set with Savall.
All the above are analog.

I've read other people raving about the Grimiaux. I bought the CD set.
The violin is front and center and the harpsichord is somewhere in the background. The problem is that the harpsichord has lots of counterpoint that relates to the violin. I pretty much couldn't hear what was going on.
I have the Laredo/Gould but Gould's playing, and I am a fan, is so bizarre in this case that it really doesn't cut it.
I need a recording that close mics the harpsichord or one with piano.

Halubek's harpsichord is easier to hear, and quite pleasant-sounding.
