I was thinking about maybe recording these records. Am I right? Is it pretty much all availabe on CD?

Most notably Exotic Moog, Latin Village, and A Taste of India have not been re-released (as far as I know).

These four discs will give you most of the Denny material you'll ever truly need. There are also about 10 different Denny 'best of' CDs (or so it seems)... but if you have the 4 Scamp discs, you'll have virtually all of the tracks found on any of the compilations. There is also a disc called Baked Alaska that contains the only known live recording of Denny, from Armed Forces Radio in Alaska! I found a used one for $6 recently. Interesting, but not essential. My advice: But the four Scamp discs, and then make your own CDs of any other LPs you may have left in your collection.
