Although I am grateful for the "classic commentaries" selections the value of the books concerned is distinctly varied. Could we possibly have some selections based on Spurgeons recommendations in Commenting and Commentaries?
Peter, I believe this is why I've been so excited about each of the sets. I want to say Logos has a close eye on Spurgeon's recommendations or else what Spurgeon liked, everyone else found helpful as well.
For example:
as for Romans, Spurgeon, in C&C, bolds (and therefore speaks highly of):
Brown#Calvin*Forbes#Haldane#Hodge*Lange*ParrRobinson#Vaughan#SclaterFraser#EltonBinningHorton* indicates a commentary already released in Logos in another collection (3)# indicates a commentary in the Classic Commentary Collection for Romans (6)
this leaves 5 recommended authors unaccounted for. It would be nice, as you suggested, to get those 5 authors too!
[EDIT]
Three released author collections Spurgeon speaks consistently well of include:
Five author collections I'm anxiously waiting for in Pre-pub or Community Pricing that Spurgeon speaks well of include:
Sad that the Adam Clarke set seems to be going nowhere on pre-pub though.
Randall, Clarke is one of the ones I wish had gone to CP when Logos switched to the new website format. *hint* *hint* [:D]
*hint* *hint*
Yes, more hint from me as well [:D]
...and it looks like Sibbes just received a release date!
(Sorry Peter for dragging this thread off course. Feel free to reel us back in!)
It would be really nice if Logos could create a "Spurgeon's Recommended Commentaries Collection" that bundled the specific titles together. Logos has done those type of cherry-picked bundles before.
Noticed Sibbes too. Hooray!

Keep Smiling [:)]
Peter, ST, KS4, & anyone else,
I just compiled a pbb (.docx file) of the 402 commentaries in Commenting and Commentaries that Spurgeon listed as "recommended" by bolding and capitalizing (sadly not shown in the Logos version). I also linked them to the available resource on the Logos website for those looking to build their own Spurgeon Recommended Commentary Set.

Let me know if you find any errors or have any ideas for improvement!
