What artist do you own the most music by? And why?

[Alex]

As much as I love the Ramones and Radio Birdman, the artist I own the most records by, is Ty Segall.  His guitar shredding and the sound of his voice are awesome, and he's a great songwriter.  Plus, he's absurdly prolific and the quality just doesn't drop.  At this point, I own pretty much all of his solo stuff and side projects, save for one or two 7" singles.

What about you?  Maybe we can post photos of ourselves with our "most by this artist" records?

Dave, I'm in awe of your Cramps collection. I lost about 2/3rds of my Cramps stuff when I moved to Canada and am still building back up my collection. They're a huge band for me. I was a teenage punk rocker who bought Songs the Lord Taught Us in a Virginia Beach record store on a whim 23 years ago and it became the alpha and omega of everything I've listened to since.

Have to be Big Black for me, I had to get everything Albini released for awhile, so got UK, USA and Australian pressings of most LPs as well re issues and CDs.

Thanx Rufus...will see you on Apr 21st!!

This has been one of most interesting forum topics for me, as it really shows what obsessive collectors of cool music we have on the garagepunk hideout!!

Keep the posts coming!!!

I bought the Rubble 1-10 cd box last week. I guess that doesnt count as its not from a single artist.

I own 10 John Barry 7 45's, 9 Bert Weedon 45's and 8 Sounds Incorporated 45's.  I am still adding to my collection. I love early British Instros.

No kind of big deal.

No Carnegie Steel.

 

Actually, an awesome collection. Brings back good memories.

The Damned followed by the Ramones. Mostly because they both have released so many damned (get it?) records and 7" sleeve variations etc etc that sucker a collector nerd like me to buy. No picture of me, but a set a photos I'd snapped for another forum. I have to give credit though to an old friend who sold me his entire Damned 7" collection back in the 80's. I knew it hurt him, but he knew it was going to a good home. That's where a good chunk of my Damned and Capt. Sensible singles came from.

Elvis P. and Neil Young .....

No need to write a single word about the KING. He will always be my " light in the dark "

Neil Young is so much " part of my life " ... he writes the songs I'll never have talent for ....

[heyhamburgerpimp]

1. Guided By Voices

2. J Church

3. Boyracer

Between Bob Pollard, Lance Hahn, and Stew Anderson, I am not sure how my record funds survived.
