Most recordings you own by a single artist, group, or composer


I went and purchased two more John Coltrane CD’s, "Blue Train" and "Traneing In", in spite of, relative to other artists, having way too many of his albums already. I do love his music and just now counted having forty-eight of his albums, not even including the ones he recorded with Miles Davis.

Is there anyone else out there at least equally nutty, or has more recordings by any single artist, band or composer? If so, who do you like, and how many of their albums have you collected and play? Miles Davis at thirty-three records and CD’s, comes in a not too distant second in my collection.

Hopefully this topic hasn’t been broached before here.

Little Feat. Not 47 albums, but including live recordings, bootlegs and studio releases, easily 30 +.
Their live record "Waiting for Columbus" to me is still the best live record ever made.
Roon is telling me that I own 63 Phish recordings. By some standards, that makes me a noob.
Wow, the Bach, Grateful Dead, and Zappa fans seem to rule the roost of completist collectors here, of those of you who have graciously listed the number of recordings you have by those artists. I wouldn't have guessed Zappa, or Bach for that matter, with not enough Classical music experience under my belt. I would have thought Miles Davis collectors would be more prevalent as there's lots of his stuff out there including live recordings. 

Michaellent, I'm two years younger than you and still feel $3.88 is the right price for an album. You and I listened to albums the same way too with the same equipment too. I still feel that gasoline should be no more than $1.29 a gallon at the most too. That day has come around again in some locales, so maybe the price of vinyl records will return to reality too.

Folks, if you really like an artist, if you haven't already, share how many of of his or her recordings you do have, so we can properly admire you and your collecting.
