Artists whose every official studio album you have heard?
Steffi Ivan Graf Lendl
1) The Beatles (have heard all their 12 official albums. Even the
crappy second part of Yellow Submarine which is not really theirs)
2) Led Zeppelin (only 9 albums counting Coda, so not a tough task)
3) Pink Floyd (I have heard all their 14 studio albums, Pink Floyd was
my #1 band once)
4) Joy Division (only 2 studio albums, so hard not to cover them)
5) Sex Pistols (only one official studio album, so easy)
6) The Jimi Hendrix Experience (barely remember the last two, but have
heard all three studio albums at least once)
7) The Doors (heard all their album disappointed with The Soft Parade
which was awful)
8) The Police (I thought all of them were terrible)
9) The Yardbirds (only two of them were non compilations, so easy to
cover them)
10) The Velvet Underground (none of the last 3 can compare to the
debut, but I have heard all 4)
11) Stone Roses (just 2 albums not easy to miss)
Some artists, I have come close to listening it all...
1) The Who - haven't heard Who Are You (only parts of it), Face
Dances, Its Hard and Endless Wire
2) Cream - haven't heard Goodbye
3) Yes - haven't heard Open Your Eyes, Union (only parts of it), Talk
(only parts of it), Keys To Ascencion 1&2 (only parts of it)
4) The Verve - haven't heard their latest one, supposedly junk. The
first three were good
Others like Kinks, Rolling Stones have way too many albums and I dont
think I will ever be able to listen to their stuff in the 80s, 90s
even late 70s

The Dead Milkmen (Like The A's) were local Philly Favorites back in
the late 70's into the 80's. The Milkmen made MTV with the song "Punk
Rock Girl" which immortalized the shop Zipperhead (long gone now)
where an actual punk rock girl I dated worked. She had a mohawk and
everything. (In the interest of full disclosure: she got the mohawk
after we stopped dating.) I'm pretty sure she's still down there
running some sort of shop or something, but alas, South Street
nowadays is about as 'punk' as the Gap.

No, I have not, but I'm always up for a new Free Bird. I was really
hoping to see them at bike week one time. Instead we got crap like
Billie Ray Cyrus the one time I made the big concert. Cleared that
place out like a bomb going off.

Nickel Creek are a bluegrass band that I saw at the Philadelphia Folk
Festival a few years back. They blew the place away Chris Thile is a
monster of the mandolin. They also has some really off kilter chord
changes and melodies which I found fascinating. They came back one
year and Chris jammed with John Hartford, one of the most amazing
performances I have ever seen on any stage.

Think of what you might get if you crossed Cream with the Allman
Brothers Band. Best live rock show I have seen in many a year, Gov't
Mule at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville.

Window scrapers, rolling trays, hell I once used a copy of Rick
Wakeman's "Journey to the Center of the Earth" (and a few other, even
less memorable 8 tracks) for traction when my '66 Impala got stuck in

I'm genuinely surprised! I have two (I think) - Keynsham and The
Doughnut in Granny's Greenhouse. Plus The Best of the Bonzos, which is
the compilation that first drove me to get the other two. I never
listen to my lps any more, but if you're curious there are some great
tracks that never made it to the various anthologies.

80s was a retro decade anyway. Add a little bit of synth to 50s and
60s pop doesnt make it modern.

It was there when it happened, it's only retro when it's in the past.
Everything's modern nowadays.
But I guess they were ahead of their time in the 50s and the 60s before

ELO, including the disappointing Zoom and Jeff Lynne's slightly peculiar
solo album. No ELO Mark II.
Time from 1981, an underrated album, after the awful 70s influences had
gone away.
Ray
Here's the deal. I bought my first LP record in 1970 at a store called
EJ Korvette, it was "Abbey Road" by the Beatles. Between that purchase
and when I stopped buying vinyl I owned somewhere north of 500 LP
records. I have friends who owned lots more than that. When I was in
college sharing music with people, usually when you purchased a new
record for example, was an important social ritual. I don't see people
doing that much anymore, but we were doing it as late as the original
CD release of Sgt Pepper. So not only have I heard the 500 or so LPs I
owned, 400 + CDs etc... I have listened to many albums by people I
didn't really care about enough to purchase myself. Bands like Gentle
Giant, Alan Parsons Project (band?) or Return to Forever (well, I got
one or two of theirs.)
Not only have I listened to every Beatles and every Stones album, I've
done it in the space of a week when I'm really bored at work. These
iPod deals (and walkmen and minidisc players) make it easy to listen
to music anywhere at anytime. I do.

I just got the box set of Get Yer Ya Yas out (that makes three copies
I've owned) and from way back when until late last night, that album
kicks ass on a level most bands can only dream about. And the addition

I think I need to get the criterion collection blue ray disc of Gimme

OOoh, I forgot them, had all their stuff that came out on vinyl, kinda
lost interest when they replaced with strings with more synths. Took a
lot of the fun out of it for me. Saw them live three times. The last
one was the big spaceship deal, great fun, but they lost me after that
as I moved into a more traditional direction. Prog rock at the end of
the seventies was kind of losing it's edge for me and I went looking
for some new stuff.
Found it too.

I've still got the 3D vinyl cover of Satanic Majesties Request and
Sticky Fingers with the actual zipper, as well as a couple 60's
mono releases. I'm not sure why tho, as my turntable hasn't seen
any action in the last 20 years.
Most of the vinyl I've owned was soon added to or replaced by either
an 8 track, cassette or cd. I know I've bought the White Album at
least 5 times.
The talk of the Stones in a Beatles group made me
think about uploading the Lennon performance from
Rock and Roll Circus, but a quick search showed it
to already be on Youtube...

I had the zipper cover, but satanic majesty I didn't get until CDs, so

I just saw the Hooters at that Spectrum Demolition nostalgia concert

The sounds is more monotonous and predictable than the older stuff.
The last ELO album before, in 1986, sounds a bit like it. There's
always at least one really good song on an ELO album, and usually a
boring 'rock and roll' song.

Maybe it was the time or something, but I have a particular soft spot
for Time and Secret Messages. They both surprised me. I had sort of
moved on from ELO when both came out, especially at the time of Secret
Messages, Discovery had gone too disco for me. Secret Messages was more
introspective than most, I think Jeff Lynne had broken up with his
girlfriend or wife by then, who was new when he did Time, and I think
she is on that one. A bit of a homage to Bob Dylan on Blood on the
Tracks at times on Secret Messages if I am not mistaken.

Gram Parsons (post Burritos)
Cream
Jimi Hendrix
Crosby Stills Nash and Young
Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac (and most of what followed but not all)
Led Zeppelin (except only the tracks from Coda on the 4 disc compilation)
Joy Division
there are probably a few more but what is the merit in hearing every
official studio album by say Neil Young, as much as I admire Neil I'm not
sure I want to hear everything he recorded in say the 80's, 90's and later
and the same goes for Bob Dylan and many others.....

That's a pretty good indication of how well informed he is about
music.
And is it really that difficult to listen to a whole album from
beginning to end? I just started by day by listening to the Bowie box
set "Sound and Vision" while I wrote a stored procedure to export lead
data to one of our big customers.

You are correct, the second album was a live album. Good catch.

Buying every Neil Young album will tax your resources for sure. But
it's usually worth it. There are a few I might give back, but I do
admire the fact that he does his own thing, even if it won't sell.

Sure Neil isn't always understood by some of his fans but definitely has a
mind of his own. If you've time perhaps you could say something about his
Geffen years, apart from Trans which I bought, and some of his 00's output.
I only bought Greendale and CD2. Which are the real stinkers if any?
You must have spent a small fortune on Zappa.....

Trans is my least favorite, Everybody's Rockin' has it's moments but
seems kind of pointless.
My favorite from the 90's is probably WELD, if for no other reason,
there's a monster version of Cortez the Killer on there.

It really started getting expensive when they started releasing the
"vaulternative" live CDs. My copy of FZ OZ has an insert with the
names of all the people who pre-paid for the release so the ZFT didn't
have to risk any money on the release.
When I got serious about filling in my Zappa collection I used to make
trips to New York City to Park Row, where you will find JR Music
World. They had (at that time, and yet they may still) the best
selection of CDs anywhere. including ALL of the fill ins I needed for
my Zappa collection.
Yeah, my name is on that insert.

I don't know that I meant what I said. It just seemed that Jeff had
worked out how he would sound on everything he did. I haven't heard the
album in ages anyway. I've recently heard for the first time, a few
Move singles from 1970 to 72 when Jeff was in the group, Chinatown,
California Man,. He sounds younger but familiar there.
