So what do we all have hiding away in our collections? Ashamed, proud? Tell us what those artists mean to you. Love em, hate em? Here's mine:

Aqualung (given to me as a gift, middle of the road sound)

The Beatles (every collection needs this)

Blur (came about after curiousity from the whole Oasis Vs. Blur battle)

David Byrne (had his moments, but not in my top ten)

Coldplay (after clocks, I had to have their music in my collection)

Cream (Sunshine of your love, Strange Brew, White Room- need I say more?)

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young (the best 4-piece since The Beatles)

Crowded House (While a Crowded House album wasn't the first CD I ever owned, this band really kicked off what music meant to me. For me, the ones who started my love for music)

Death In Vegas (I got the Scorpio album after it was announced that Oasis were collaborating with them at the time, plus, vocal perfomances with Liam and Paul Weller are a good reason to have this in your collection)

Finn Brothers (same reason as Crowded House)

Neil Finn (same reason as Crowded House)

Tim Finn (same reason as Crowded House)

Ben Folds (as a result of being a Ben Folds Five fan)

Ben Folds Five (was given their Reinhold Messner album as a gift, brilliant piece of work and took off from there)

Forrest Gump Soundtrack (essential rock and roll on this collection)

Jet (the Australian Oasis? We'll see, a strong debut, lets hope it doesn't dissipate in their second album)

Paul Kelly (think of the Australian equivilant of Bob Dylan)

Mark Knopfler (great guitarist)

Alex Lloyd (after hearing "my way home" from his Black the Sun Album, he sounded promising, but anything since he's released has been middle of the road for me, avoid).

Limp Bizkit (well, as much as it pains me to admit this, I did say name everything in your collection. I don't like to admit this to often, but I do like their music. Sorry, certainly not in my top 10 and they don't have an album I would consider memorable, but worth having for the angst).

Paul McCartney (his stuff in the 90's is his best work believe it or not, never was a fan of wings. Check out "Off the ground", "Flamming Pie" and "Driving Rain)

Johnny Marr (I got his solo album after seeing him as a guest at Neil Finn's 7 Worlds Collide Concerts, electric performer, its a shame Boomslang didn't get the praise it deserved in the press)

Martin/Molloy (these guys aren't musicians, they're comedians who used to have their own radio show under the title of Martin/Molloy, but they released highlights of their show on a trillogy of double albums, on one of them, a comedy sketch of Oasis. CLassic)

Midnight Oil (great Australian band I was passionette about at the time, but not as much any more)

Moby (after hearing the song "Porcelain" I thought he was quite creative. I came, I saw, I purchased, I cringed)

Oasis (the very first album I purchased EVER in my life was Be Here Now. For a whole year, I hated it and didn't have faith in the music industry. One night while writing an assignment for Religion when I was in year 9, I put the album on as background music, it was at that point Oasis clicked and I loved them ,got all their albums and i'm the Oasis maniac I am today next to The Beatles and Neil Finn. )

Pearl Jam (yet another artist I have explored courtesy of the Neil Finn 7 Worlds conert. Eddie Vedder was a guest at this show too and the pair of them sung "Parting ways", PJ quickly became part of my CD collection after)

R.E.M (a band I always had an interest in when listening to them on radio, one day I started off with Automatic for the People and just grew from there, I can't explain why i'm such a huge fan or how I got that way, but they are part of the collection)

Rolling Stones (I have the 40 Licks Compilation and to me I can't see what else i'd need from them, it seems pretty definitive, but i'll probably add more)

Mark Seymour (brother of Crowded House's bass guitarist, Nick Seymour. Hence why I have an album of his)

Silverchair (the experimental album, Diorama sparked a curiosity in me. Before then I always saw Daniel Johns as a little pretentious but Diorama has changd that pre-conception somewhat.)

Something For Kate (they had this really good tune called "Monsters", i still love it to this day, but as for the band, they're ok, not a group I revisit all the time)

Split Enz (all part of exploring the roots of the Finn Brothers. Split Enz never meant as much to me as Crowded House did. Crowded House seemed to have that charisma about them, SPlit Enz were eccentric and radical, sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't)

Powderfinger (their career begins and ends with Odyssey #5, once you have that album, you have the best of Powderfinger. Next please)

Sting (i've always had a respect for Sting, after hearing Desert Rose, I knew I had to make him a part of the collection)

Travis (from "Why Does it Always rain on me?", i've been a fan. I'm a sucker for that innocuous, Beatle-esque sound)

U2 (only very recently i've got into U2. I started off with All That You Can't Leave Behind, an album which to me was quite flat and dull outside of the single from that LP. But, I also have Best of's 1980-1990 & 1990-2000. recently added How To Dismantle an atomic bomb to my collection, loving it and also added Pop. A great band.)

The Vines (I purchased their albums hoping for the Australian Oasis but I didn't quite get that. But I haven't wiped them off yet, they haven't burned their bridges yet)

Tom Waits (recommended by a friend. Sometimes I love the stuff, other times I need a good stiff drink. Overall, a character and pleased to have him in my collection)

Paul Weller (Noel Gallagher spoke a lot about him and I just had to try his music out, Started with illumination, loved that. Also have Modern Classics and Heavy Soul. Can't wait to continue the journey)

The Whitlams (Again, i love that clean Beatles sound, plus, it's Australian and done well, very rare)

The Who (picked up their greatest hits compilation before going to see their concert when they toured Australia, a great night out and a great compilation to remember it by)

Wings (while innevitably not as memorable as the Beatles, i've found room for Wings, even though I prefer Paul's solo stuff, you have to hand it to them for Live And Let Die don't you?)

OK, you asked for it (and brace yourself for some really unpredictable entries - unpredictable, that is, if you take the Finns' work as the template)

Hmmm, I guess all these point directly to the Finns, eh?

This won't be too hard. I'm "too poor" to have that many CD's. Much of what I have were gifts, free (but not given as presents) or used. Anyway...

-The Ben Folds Five (Unauthorized Biography of Reinhold Messner and Whatever and Ever Amen)
-David Bowie (Reality)
-Marshall Crenshaw(Marshall Crenshaw and whatever his live album's called)
-Crowded House (Woodface)
-Echo (Echo...they are a good band that still has yet to receive proper exposure) -Donald Fagen (Kamakiriad)
-Finn Brothers (Everyone is Here)
(strangely enough I have NO Neil or Tim Finn albums...yet)
-Ben Folds (Ben Folds Live and Rocking the Suburbs)
-Groovelily (Just the Three of Us. They're supposed to be a good band, but I actually haven't listened to this yet)
-John Hiatt (some Best of collection and Y'All Caught the Ones that Got Away)
-Joe Jackson (Blaze of Glory, Body and Soul, Heaven and Hell, I'm the Man, Jumpin' Jive, Laughter and Lust, Look Sharp, Night and Day, Night Music, Summer in the City, Joe Jackson's Greatest Hits, Steppin Out: The Best of Joe Jackson, Joe Jackson: This is It, and Joe Jackson: The Collection)
-The Joe Jackson Band (Afterlife and Volume 4)
(oh, I "can't stand" Joe Jackson)
Jack Johnson (Brushfire Fairytales and On and On)
-Freedy Johnston (Never Home, Right Between the Promises, and This Perfect World)
-Mindy Jostyn (In His Eyes)
-Mary Lee's Corvette (another band I have yet to listen to. My sister used to work for the company that distrubted their albums... anyway, I have The Lovers of Adventure and Mary Lee's Corvette)
-Paul McCartney (All the Best)
-David Mead (Mine and Yours)
-Van Morrison (Moondance)
-Graham Parker (Burning Questions, Mona Lisa's Sister, Squeezing Out Sparks and Live Sparks, Twelve Haunted Episodes)
-Todd Rundgren (Best of, Liars, With a Twist)
-William Shatner (Has Been)
-Split Enz (Anniversary. Best of Split Enz, History Never Repeats)
-Steely Dan (Best of, Everything Must Go, Gaucho, Katy Lied, Two Against Nature)
-They Might Be Giants (Factory Showroom, The Spine)
-XTC (Rag and Bone Buffet, Upsy Daisy Assortment, White Music. I also have the Testimonial Dinner CD which is a tribute CD of XTC songs )

I also have about five or six "compilation" CDs, mostly of silly things like '80s hits, and I have a shelf of more "guilty pleasure" artists (like I take William Shatner absolutely seriously, but there are a lot of good people on that album) which include people like Meatloaf and Peter Cetera, but I don't feel like looking for them. It looks like a lot of CDs (to me) right now, but compared to my sisters about 300 CDs, it's about a handful.

Hi, there! I'll go listing (ten) of my A) favourite artists and B) favourite albums, not necessarily preference ordered,
and bearing in mind that there's is no artist that has the true excellence badge, all have had, at some point, their
weak/embarrassing artistry moments (skeletons in their cupboard)...
A) Frank Zappa - Van der Graaf Generator - David Bowie - Bjork - Mike Bloomfield - Split Enz - Enya - Pink Floyd -
Talking heads - Peter Gabriel
B) Pawn hearts (Van der Graaf Generator) - Rage against the machine (Rage against the machine) - Watermark
(Enya) - The grand wazoo (Frank Zappa) - The flowers of evil (Mountain) - The dream of the blue turtles (Sting) -
The Beatles (the so-called "white album") - Made in Japan (Deep purple) - London calling (The Clash) - Beggars
banquet (Rolling stones)
It's a shame that good material from other bands is dispersed along many different albums so that it's too hard to
name "one" exceptionally good album (see Smashing Pumpkins, Split Enz, U2, Prince, Cure, Kate Bush, The B-52's,
Johnny Winter, Rolling stones, etc.).
Hey, Phyllis Dodger, I've seen you've mentioned They might be giants without including "Flood" their (to me) best
album; if you never listened to it I strongly recommend you give it a try... real high-high-quality fun...
Bye

here's about 75% of my catalog, cataloged: http://homepage.mac.com/vieoray/itunes/derricks_library.html

I've checked out "Flood" from the library and it's good. The library is the source of my hearing Neil Finn CD's as well as Tim's "Before and After" and "Say it is So," and Crowded House's "Together and Alone" and "Afterglow" (which I have right now and which I really enjoy).

It surprises me that none of my silly 80s complilation CDs have "Don't Dream it's Over" or "Something So Strong," but sadly they don't.

This is a good question! Well here goes...

Enzo(1st one)

Early into my collection, I used to fall in love with an artist and get every record they have released. This happens rarely nowadays, those it's happened with The Clash and R.E.M. over the past year or so. So about half my collection is almost everything that particular band has released, and the other half is normally a best of, and 2 or 3 of their best albums (for example, for the Stones I have Forty Licks and Jump Back, then Exile, Sticky Fingers, Let It Bleed and Beggars Banquet). My U2, Chili Peppers and Bowie CDs etc would probably equate for roughly a third of my collection, though my most prized possession at the moment is probably my triple-vinyl Sandinista! by the Clash.

Impressive collection ALadIn Sane.

I still do the same thing as you, end up buying everything I can get hold of by an artist. Given my financial state, parenthood, I've not managed this as much in recent years, but for virtually 80% of the artists I listed I've got every studio album, and most live albums by them.

Artists like Crowded House, Danny Wilson and Thomas Dolby I've got virtually all the CD singles, VHS tapes and with Crowded House the two books (Private Universe and SSS). I also went to every local gig CH played (1 in Liverpool, 3 in Manchester).
