I'm sure Shug would love my, kind of big, Depeche Mode collection :lol:

I stopped collecting with the Singles 98 album, I have the albums, but not the singles since then.

I have also a good Cure collection.

And I have tons of crap, tons of CD singles I bought when I was going to clubs weekly, and etc..

nice one Shug...except for that 7" of The Farm's Love See No Colour...blame it on the drugs right?

I am curious about the two Come Home 12"s...i have two Weatherall mixes on the Ring The Bells UK CD Single...are there other Weatherall mixes?

hugo dub & skank something or other are on my CD Single.

also noticed you have the 7" of Killing Moon...surely they couldn't fit the excellent extended version on that tiny platter...

:lol: I actually quite like LSNC by The Farm, although it's not a favourite. As fer the 2 Come Home 12"s, If I remember correctly, one's an extended remix, and the other is remixed by Flood, I'll have a look when I get home mate, there were a few more remixes done in 92 and 95......and I was only joking about everyone crashing at yours:D

lots and lots of blur CDs of all sorts. i have about 550 others, as well. from new order to marvin gaye to goldie to patsy cline. but no kenny G.

and hundreds of cassettes sitting in a crate underneath my bed from back in the day. lots of NO/JD, REM, DM, etc. stuff i was into in high school. anything you can think of from, like, '85-'90 in that 'new wavey/'80s 'modern rock' vein. i got rid of my def leppard in high school. and lionel ritchie...thought i was too cool. wish i had them now for posterity. *sigh*

oi! lionel ritchie's 'can't slow down' album is a classic! probably the first cassette i ever bought (well, my parents bought it, as i was about 8 or 9). i had the 'coal miner's daughter' soundtrack given to me in 1981 by my best friend, but as that was a gift it doesn't count. i still have that one, and still listen to it.

as for mr. ritchie, he was at the summit of his solo career with 'can't slow down'! he started going downhill with 'dancing on the ceiling', but 'can't slow down' is truly an '80s classic. the man was in the commodores for chrissake!

what about 'running with the night'? top song!

and you mean you weren't moved to tears by the video for 'hello' where he falls for his blind neighbour? :lol:

Ah, "Hello", the stalking video (he calls her on the phone, but can't quite get out the words while she's on the other end. I love how she doesn't seem worried when he hangs up). The single greatest moment of that video is the butt-ugly bust of Lionel done by the "blind" woman. That was an insult to sculptors and actresses hired to play blind women. :lol:

You'll also notice how fashion-concious it is (everybody's got a Jheri curl and loud ties). Ah, the Eighties, a simpler time, really.....

Well going strictly on 'most space' criteria, and consulting my geeky spreadsheet list my next favourite artist appears to be 'Various'. Closely followed by 'Various (magazine cover disk)'.

i just put all of my CDs back in their jewel cases which were in storage (after years of living out of the travel case thingies) and i, too, was shocked to discover how many magazine cover discs i actually own. hell, at least i didn't pay for them (for the most part)!

Mine's mostly Electronic, though I only have one record by Electronic themselves. Most occurring artistes apart from New Order are, Chemical Brothers, Underworld and other Boy's Own label acts. Quite a bit of Madchester era stuff as well. Suprisingly, St Etienne feature rather higher than I'd of thought. And good old various is well represented by Muzik and Cafe Del Mar.

Shugzy's seen most of my collection, hardly as impressive as manys on here but i've got mostly what i want and thats all i care about :D

Back to Mr Ritchie...agreed, the Hello video is a bit sinister yet amusing, but I defy anyone not to be moved by such classics as 'Easy', 'Three Times a Lady', 'Endless Love', and there's another one I love - I think it's called 'Still'. Went through a phase of listening to my ma's copy of Lionel's Greatest Hits when drunk and maudlin :lol: He is the king of the sentimental ballad.

And 'All Night Long' - what a tune!

Yep, I'm definitely with AgentWood on this one :D

In terms of four cds or more:

Beatles (20-something) Joy Division (5 plus the box set) New Order (15 or more) Belle and Sebastian (8 or 9) The Who (close to 15) Velvet Underground (5) Elvis Costello (6) Jonathan Richman (4 if you count the Modern Lovers CDs) Pink Floyd (4)

Jeez, it's too early for me to be trying to think :cry:

But I think that about covers the multiple CDs :thumb:

I have too damn many cds. It got a bit out of hand when I was in the US and discovered those 'buy 1 get 17 free, quit and repeat' cd clubs. Roll on the day when I can transfer them all on to DVD and reduce the space they take up by a factor of 5 or more.

Not gonna waste a lot of time listing everything, but here's what I will list:

Tons of NO/JD

Practically everything by the Fall up til Infotainment Scam (albums since then have been a bit hard to find at times).

Everything by Aussies The Triffids and The Church (lots).

Tons of Cabaret Voltaire.

All Bunnymen except for Electrafixion, and all solo stuff, even Will's Themes From Grind.

All Jam and Clash.

Tom Waits Island years stuff.

Some Dylan (comparable to Shugzys, though Oh Mercy is a good album)

Anything that I can get my hands on from The Pop Group and Mark Stewart.

Too much indie stuff from the 80s (Postcard to SST to Homestead).

Oh yeah, hardly anything by the Cure, the Mode, and Ultravox ;)

About 220-250 Fall CDs..... and a few other things, mostly the 80s UK stuff that has been mentioned above. Oh, and then there's the complete Sonic Youth catalogue.
