BMG has released an extraordinary four-disc set of Sir Noël's complete HMV 78RPM recordings, and therefore to list them here would be pointless.
Several single disc collections are also available, however, such as:
Noël Coward And Gertrude Lawrence
Pearl Flapper (PAST CD 9715 UK) 1990
The Compact Coward
EMI (CDP 7 922802)
His later recording are a bit more difficult to come by, however, and it is these we will concentrate on.
Conversation Piece (1951) Columbia, 2LPs, app
90 minutes.
An extrarodinarily charming version of one of Sir Noël's most enjoyable shows, this recording features, along with Sir Noël, the talented Lily Pons and a young Richard Burton. Sadly, we have yet to see in on CD.

Originally released on DRG as a 2 LP set, this features the audio portion of the entire TV Special. The CD release only features about 50 minutes' worth. This is unfortunate, as the entire 2 LP set would have fit comfortably onto one CD. Nonetheless, either version is well worth searching out.
