We certainly do strongly encourage reviewers to make comparisons between new recordings and back catalogue issues, yes.

Of course the site's life blood is its coverage of recently issued CDs but we need to extend our coverage back in time.
In the streaming era, I think coverage of the back catalog is more important than ever. That can be as simple as recommending available alternatives when reviewing a new recording, or brief repertoire surveys (which don't have to be as detailed as a Tony Duggan or Ralph Moore survey).
