Deep Thoughts

Think about your music collection. Do you own all of the albums ever made by a singer/group? If so, which singer/group(s)?

    1. Hey Derek! I sat in the 6th row in Massey Hall at a Sonic Youth show maybe 4 years ago. Fantastic show but probably lost 5-10% of my hearing!

  4. iTunes probably doesn't count as a music collection but I think I'd say U2 if it did. I tend to collect authors, so I'm not really reliable when it comes to music.

  8. Madonna. I have her entire catalogue including rare, unreleased tracks, studio demos, tour demos, an original vinyl "test pressing" of Deeper & Deeper, the music from her pre-fame days in the band Emmy. There isn't anything of hers (musically) that I don't have.

    1. You beat me to it! Everything too! Were you the one who was listening the "leaked stuff" all day long?

      Delete
    2. @Wahoowifey - yes that was me :) And I'm still listening to them. It sucks for her that all those demos leaked but OMG what a glorious gift for the fans! hahaha I'm already saving my money for the next tour. Every time she hits the road, I see as many shows as I can. I was front row, center for opening night of the Confessions Tour in L.A. and also for both nights in San Jose for the MDNA Tour. I can't even count how many times I've seen her live. All I know is it's in the double-digits ;)

    3. Yeah you gave me a link...didn't work out but I did wind up finding it later. It's good..but fave is still album CODF. Funny I saw the Drowned World Tour in LA (was living there at the time). What an awesome show, just days after 9/11. Were you at that one? in LA? I was going to say too that I have ALL Depeche Mode (saw u like them too) and Duran Duran.

  9. Only Sondre Lerche I think. Though maybe I have everything by the Kinks on cd as well.

  10. Cross Canadian Ragweed and I have everything that I've been able to find so far of this Australian country singer, Sherrie Austin. Her early stuff is impossible to find though I used to have illegally downloaded mp3s of what I think was everything. Lost it all when that computer died, though. :(

    1. Take the last two away and I have the exact collections lol I even have a sealed copy of KISS' self titled debut without "Kissin' Time" on it and a copy of "KISS The Originals" and the foreign exclusives. I'm such a geek about KISS. Best concert I ever went to was May 2000 in Little Rock, AR with Ted Nugent and Skid Row opening for KISS during the "Farewell Tour". It's the concert you see the clip of Gene getting hit in the head by Ace's guitar during Rock and Roll All Nite and being busted open. Even have some confetti covered in his actual blood that night lol

      Delete
    2. Confetti stained with Gene's blood? Now, that's a hardcore KISS fan!

      Delete
    3. Yep, I was second row, directly in front of Gene (who is always audience left) and when he wiped it away, it flew directly to me, coated in white and black face paint and blood from his forehead. (What had happened was during the encore, Ace was swinging his guitar and Gene just walked right into it lol You can find the video on Youtube)

Bruce Springsteen, The Tragically Hip, Neil Young, Rolling Stones, Sly and The Family Stone, and I've worn out two copies of Joni Mitchell's Blue and Sarah McLaughlin's Mirror Ball - I have a loaded ipod and a extensive album collection - I grew up in a small town and I was a minority so I didn't have friends so it was music and books. When Springsteen released "Born To Run" it was the answer to a prayer
