I’ve got all of:
R.E.M. (to an embarrassing degree)
Talking Heads
They Might Be Giants
Warren Zevon
I was thinking might have all of a couple of others (like Neil Young and Sonic Youth), but the very fact that I’m not sure tells me I probably don’t.
Is that you, Raphael?
No.
Probably none but maybe The Replacements or Cracker.
The only artist I ever made a point of collecting was Springsteen and that ended two albums ago.
Forgot to mention I have just about everything Steely Dan ever did, and also Donald Fagen as a solo artist.
Many of the better-known industrial rock bands. Nine Inch Nails, Foetus, Ministry, Skinny Puppy, Throbbing Gristle, Pigface, KMFDM, Front Line Assembly, etc.
Who
Clash
REM
Heart
Beth Hart
Pink Floyd
Jethro Tull
Ian Anderson
Rossington Collins Band
Lynyrd Skynyrd (if you don’t count anything after Ronnie died)
Sarah McLachlan
Tori Amos
Working on Porcupine Tree.
Lots of others I have most of… I have all of Ozzy’s minus the Jake E Lee stuff and the latest one. Those guitar players don’t do it for me. Black Sabbath, Rush, Yes, Allman Brothers, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Metallica.
I am thinking about starting in on Oasis. The mixes are just so horrific on those that it is offputting but they know how to put a song together in a way that is very appealing to me.
Not nearly as many as I would have thought.
Arcade Fire
Big Star
Nirvana
OutKast
Pavement
Pixies
Uncle Tupelo
Velvet Underground (Lou Reed era only, apparently there is one album after that under the VU name)
Whiskeytown
There is only one Sonic Youth album I don’t own, and that’s just because I was totally broke when it came out and haven’t gotten around to it yet. Plus I have several of the SYR albums and b-side collections and singles, so I think that makes up for it.
(In order of importance)
The Shins
The Beatles
Led Zeppelin
Rise Against
Pink Floyd
Elliot Smith
Eminem
A Day to Remember
Coldplay
Band of Horses
Thrice
The Killers
Iron Maiden
Golden Earring, though there’s one cover album I haven’t been able to find that’s actually cheap.
Iron Maiden
Motorhead
Gary Moore
Thin Lizzy
Judas Priest
Twisted Sister
I used to have a ton more, but I’ve gotten rid of a lot of stuff that I stopped listening to lately.
oh - I have all of the Bill Berry-R.E.M. albums. I also have Up, Reveal, and I think that’s where I stopped. Sorry, guys.
