Who dominates your music collection?

Rolling Stones and Pearl Jam with 5.

Um, they’re not all official.

Kenny Rogers [Country Music]

Bon Jovi [Rock]

Bach - 36 titles

Frank Sinatra-20 CD’s and they are all from one box set.

Only counting ten or above CDs:

10 - The Beatles, The Cocteau Twins, Coil

11 - Add N to X, The Art of Noise, Belle & Sebastian (hint: making a lot of EPs tends to bump up the number), The Clash

12 - Ministry

13 - The Talking Heads

14 - Depeche Mode (it’s all 1990 or earlier, otherwise it would be higher), Godflesh, Kraftwerk, Skinny Puppy, Wire (it’s about to jump to 16 in two weeks)

15 - Rapoon

16 - Cabaret Voltaire

20 - Orbital

31 - The Cure

49 - Various Artists (I can’t wait for their greatest hits package!)

Mike Oldfield - 25 CDs (so far)

Aerosmith- ~18
NOFX- ~24 (some of these are ummmm…“not purchased”)
Pink Floyd- 11
Pennywise- 7

The Who, Red Hot Chilli Peppers and Green Day- 6
Guns N Roses and Nirvana- 5

For me it is the Eurythmics, followed by Depeche Mode and Madonna.

Guess. Hint: Look at my username.

JS Bach - about 100 CDs.

I’m not going to sit and count, but off the top of my head and in no particular order:

  1. The Beatles, collectively and as solo artists. All of the official Beatles releases, a few not-so-official releases, tons of solo material by Lennon, McCartney and Harrison.

  2. The Posies. All of their studio releases, a couple of imports, and the box set put out by Not Lame records last year.

  3. John Coltrane. At least 25 CDs.

  4. Roughly equal amounts of Sheryl Crow and Aimee Mann.

  5. The Beach Boys.

  6. Because of my wife, the Monkees.

Lets see, I have to think about this since all my CDs are not in front of me:

Iron Maiden, everything at least twice plus the 10 years set, plus a number of singles, then some bootlegs, at least close to 50 if not more.

Then would be Motorhead, but mostly because of the stuff that other companies put out like best of’s etc. There must be 30 some there.

The following all have at least 10-15+, most is complete, Rush, Gary Moore, Scorpions, Judas Priest.

DM makes up for a large part of my music collection as well. Of my approx. 500 CDs (both CD albums and CD singles included but not videos or dvds or vinyls) Depeche Mode make up about 70.

The others in the top 5 are:
2. The Cure
3. The Sisters of Mercy
4. Kraftwerk
5. Front 242

I don’t get that much volume, since I have a kind of Yoko effect on bands. Not long after I get interested in them, they break up.

Pogues - 10
Art of Noise - 10
Pizzicato Five - 9
Indigo Girls - 9
Pixies - 6
Southern Culture on the Skids - 6

Sorry for the double-post, but I just noticed this. I’ve never heard Killing Joke, but one of my favorite CDs is Songs from the Victorious City by Anne Dudley and Jaz Coleman. It sounds a lot like an Art of Noise album, sure, but I was wondering if it sounds anything like a Killing Joke album?

The Grateful Dead (band and solo)

200+ tapes
30+ albums and CDs

About forty Sibelius CDs. Far and away the largest single contributor, with Beethoven, Holst and Glazunov fighting it out amongst themselves for second place.

Ditto, but haven’t updated or added to it since late 97.
14: Stones
13: Dylan
12: Black Sabbath
10: Frank Zappa/Mothers of Invention and Blue Oyster Cult
9: Steely Dan & Pink Floyd & REM
8: Who & Neil Young
