Your Collection

I have 970 cds and 1100 others in my hard drive. Metal, Prog, Pop, Blues, Brazilian and World Music.

At least I know someone looks at my posts

I counted mine....I only got 25 cds 

Picture this: a CD rack that holds about 200-225 CDs that is full that used to be in alphabetical and chronological order ( I got a bit lazy...)+several stacks of CDs (totalling about 100 or so)+two containers full of records in no specific order (maybe 125-150, I'm not sure...)

My mother is going to buy me two CD racks soon as a late birthday present, so most of, if not all my collection, should fit into them!  I'll then take photos.

I used to store mine alphabetically, until I found out excavating Hawkwind cds on a bookshelf to get to Motorhead cds behind it was incredibly tiresome. So now they are arranged in two groups-the ones on the bookshelf are the "pry these out of my cold dead fingers" collection and the ones in the entertainment center are the "normal" collection.

i like looking at other folks' collections! i gotta take some newer ones of mine...

I forgot the (slightly tongue-in-cheek) pride of my music-related collection:

Here's my collection:

First part (A-L):

Note the Judas Priest and King Crimson collections... and the empty pack of Camel on top of the Camel CD's . (I'm not a smoker though.)
The box in the top left corner contains 168 (!) jazz CD's (in cases of four), recorded from 1899 til 1955. If I remember correctly, I paid only 128 euro for that.
...And there's the Tool poster of course.

Second part (L-Z & V.A.):

Experts will recognize the Magma (top left) and Zappa (lowest two shelfs) collections.


In addition, here's my vinyl collection (I still have to listen to a lot of lp's I got from a neighbor - second pic ) and some CD's on the loose:



My room is a bit of a mess at the moment, but the CD collection is always very tidy. Only a few CD's are seperated from the rest (for listening purpose); the rest is in alphabetical order. I originally kept 'classical' CD's (contemporary composers as well) seperate from the pop/rock/jazz ones, but I just started putting them all in alphabetical order. Nice to see Beethoven next to the Beatles!

Oops! I almost forgot, the major part of my music books collection (most of them for my education):





In case you were wondering: I haven't read them all... yet.
