Are there bands for who you have all they've ever done? — Page 2

The most music I have of anyone is Ennio Morricone.

I’m trying to collect all of Bob Dylan. Still waiting on that Complete Album Collection: Volume 2.

Which body parts are you missing at this point?

His toenails go for a lot on eBay.

Really? You’d think those would be the cheapest since they are renewable.

I’ll admit I’ve way more movie soundtracks and scores on CD, WAV, and FLAC way more than I do compared to bands and individual singers.

Except my The Beatles, The Who, Pink Floyd, Simon & Garfunkel, David Bowie, Paul Simon, Cream, Eric Clapton, Electric Light Orchestra, The Cars, AC/DC, The Police, Talking Heads, Clearance Clearwater Revival, yes, Boston, Chicago, Beastie Boys, Genesis, Phil Collins, and Peter Gabriel side of my music collection is decent.

Ugh… Do you lie most of the time? To the point that you have to tell people when you’re actually being honest?
I thought “TBH” was the most annoying thing someone could type.
I was wrong.

It’s working.

Now that I just bought Proof of Youth and a few missing songs from Thunder, Lightning, Strike, I can add The Go! Team to my list.

Man, I thought I had tons of stuff with complete catalogs. I don’t hold a candle to some folks around here. There are some who’ve never let me down, no matter what (my list) and there are some where I had to say goodbye after decades when they just didn’t speak to me anymore.

Yes is a perfect example. Ive been on board since the 1970s and have seen them probably as many times as I’ve seen Genesis and Dave Matthews. However, their last two albums (2011 and 2014) seemed to be a weird shell of their former selves. I don’t own either of them. King Crimson is another. I have nearly everything and listen often, as I do with Yes, but I just drifted to the point not wanting more about ten years ago.

I’ve definitely hit that wall with some bands. Rush is one, I own so many albums (13 studio and 4 live) but I completely lost interest after Test for Echo. I actually really like that album, but for some reason I just didn’t want any more Rush in my life after buying every single album that had been coming out. Maybe someday I’ll give a listen to one of the most recent ones.

I just realized Test for Echo is 21 years old now. Wow, it can buy a drink legally.

I don’t think anything past Ok Computer is any good.

Hail to the Thief is good. There, There is Radiohead’s best song IMO.

It’s REMs best album by several miles, so I’ll take it.

Interesting thread. I assume by “all they’ve ever done”, you mean “all the albums they’ve ever done”, otherwise I’m not sure I believe any of you 😉.

I was gonna ask how we’re qualifying this. [JEDIT- Anchor said “Albums and live albums”]
As for my list, I only listed bands that I’m missing no songs from. I’ve got more albums, singles, EPs, ect. than I’m missing from all of those artists, and many are actually complete discographies.

Finally someone besides myself!!! Yay!!! Having the cover as my avatar on the Hoffman forums always creates discussion.

Choosing the best of their career is virtually impossible but Monster is my favorite and push coming to shove the best is probably NAIHF.

I’ve been collecting R.E.M. since I first started buying music and will probably never be done since I’m a nutty audiophile now and hope to have US and U.K. copies of everything for completions sake. It took me years but I managed to finally get every original US 1st issue LP to go with the cds and I’m halfway on collecting all the DVD-a discs.
I have U2 and The Who’s discography and due to the insane amount of Who variations I doubt I’ll never stop buying Who records.
Everyone else I collect what I can afford and what is the best sounding release available. I absolutely love hunting down particular great sounding pressings as it’s really like detective work.

The closest I ever came was with Erasure. I had every album from the beginning up to Union Street, minus The Two Ring Circus, on CD. After that, I just stopped collecting albums of anything and periodically downloaded individual songs. I’ve had several other albums from other artists, but nothing approaching completion like that.

I’m in the same boat except I have The Two Ring Circus and I stopped at Chorus.

Aye, Sometimes, there just seems a time to Stop collecting, whilst keeping that A Little Respect… Always have a soft spot for them though…

No need to apologize. I’ve been in many choirs and sang solo as well. Throughout high school, I patterned my voice after Andy Bell. Erasure references are always appreciated!

Their next album, the eponymous Erasure, is so different from all others, yet remains my favorite to this day. You shoulda gotten one more before quitting. 😉
