 Of which artist do you have the largest collection of....... CD's, LP's, Hardrive, cassettes, 8 track, DVD whatever.... ad infinitum, et al.



Frank

[Scott F.]

For me it's Pat Metheny. I've got somewhere around 30-35 of his releases and about half of that is on vinyl.

After that I'm pretty sure it's Genesis and solo efforts from the individual members. That one numbers between 20-25 with the majority being on vinyl. After that it's probably Clapton, Sinatra or Stan Getz at about 15-20.

I've got a a bunch of of artists that fall into the 5 to 10 to 15 range. Guys like Basie, Ellington, Yes, Rush, Allman Bros and so on.

[TomS]

Yeah, I'm swimming in Pat Metheny/PMG/Lyle Mays too, with Keith Jarrett/KJ Trio variants close behind.  They're just very prolific I guess.

[Diamond Dog]

 For me, David Bowie followed by Prince ( which actually surprised me ) with Porcupine Tree nosing out Elvis Costello for third place. CD's only - all other formats packed away so not included.

[Ericus Rex]

Bach;  maybe 12 versions of the cello suites alone!

[zybar]

The two largest in my collection by far are Phish and the Grateful Dead.

For Phish, I have over 450 albums, shows, and DVD's. Almost all of their shows from the last few years are in hi-rez and sound really good. 

For the Grateful Dead, I have over 250 albums (which includes shows, Dick's Picks, Road Trips, Box Sets, etc...)

Some other major artists include the following:

The Beatles
Rush
John Coltrane
Miles Davis
Cannonball Adderley
Thelonius Monk
Frank Sinatra
Tori Amos
Steely Dan
Dave Matthews Band
Beethoven
Bach

Miles by far...over 40Lps + over 40 CDs + several box sets + several DIY cassettes live recordings in the late 80's/early 90's.
next might be Sun Ra...dunno the amount, probably over 50 LPs+CDs.

[AVnerdguy]

Miles Davis by far
David Bowie
Beatles
Elvis Costello

[pumpkinman]

Some questions are fun no matter how many times they are asked   

[eclein]

I'm working on my collection and it's very small right now but Pat Metheny and all things PMG followed by Steely Dan.
