Alphabetical by last name and then release order within the band. Plus a random bin on the side for stuff I’ve recently listened to.

Yeah I gave up and alphabetized then release order, except Wings got mushed together with McCartney in the Ms. And yeah add me to those that dislike when a single album gets split across multiple discs on rerelease. You notice that poo poo when your player is far away from your speakers. At least I get a lot of exercise running up and down the stairs.

oh we’re doing this discussion again again? pwn posted:Oh we’re doing this discussion again? I put things in whatever order feels right. You could call it autobiographical. It works very well for me. Yes, I’m a garbage person. Yes, you would hate it. Don’t come over to my place. You don’t want to be here. I don’t want you here. My records, my problem.

i just alphabetize by band name and artist last name. at the end i have a section of miscellany where i put kid's records, soundtracks, and whatever odds and ends don't fit but i still want on hand to listen to.

I just put them back in whatever order I listened to them last so the ones I don't listen to gradually make their way to the end of the shelf and then I go well I guess I don't need these and then get rid of them

I just vaguely sort them in order of genre - I have two cubes for prog, one for electronic, one for German rock from the 70s, one for YMO and all related stuff...it's an unsustainable system but it'll work as long as I don't buy any more records...

Because we have this discussion every 6 months. I use two systems, dance music and boogie is sorted by BPM then Key. 45’s are by genre then label then issue order. LPs are genre then artist.

I guess I'm part of the problem now. Ween chat earlier made me realize I didn't have two of my favorite tracks on vinyl, so I spent way too much on the 7"s of Gabrielle and Beacon Light from Discogs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCBjzluEQuY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qX-zaCGRlnE Enos Cabell fucked around with this message at 16:54 on Jan 7, 2022 |

The worst is any of Omar Rodriguez-Lopez's various solo projects because he devises a different name for each group he plays with. Off the top of my head, Omar Rodriguez-Lopez El Grupo Nuevo de Omar Rodriguez-Lopez El Trio de Omar Rodriguez-Lopez The Omar Rodriguez-Lopez Quartet The Omar Rodriguez-Lopez Group (as distinguished from El Grupo Nuevo) The Omar Rodriguez-Lopez Quintet That's not counting The Mars Volta, De Facto, At the Drive-In, Bosnian Rainbows...

The original Alice Cooper band goes under A since Alice Cooper was the name of the whole band. Alice Cooper's solo albums go under C. Also here's a bunch of my recent Savers finds. It was funny finding that Richard Harris album because I'd had the song MacArthur Park stuck in my head for days at that point. I also picked up Slow Train Coming by Bob Dylan but I forgot I had it when I took this picture.

I alphabetize by first name 'cause amy winehouse deserves to be at the front of my collection (... after 5 revolutions and al green) edit: all trent reznor albums go under N regardless of what name is on the jacket. Eraser is under R.

I only paid a dollar and change for it because I have a Savers club card and I guess there was some kind of sale or I had enough points or something. What's weird is I've had much better scores there in the last couple years when everyone is buying records than I use to when no one gave a poo poo.

I organize in a very lazy way: semi alphabetically. Things are generally in the letter they should be in no particular order. Too much of a pain to try to keep everything perfectly organized and I'm long past having enough space for poo poo.

Behind the video game soundtracks and random Chinese... pop? It's been a while since I listened to those records. They were kinda bland and inoffensive to listen to at any rate.

I remember finding Sleepless Nights(not a great album) in a cheap bin and the cashier at the record store was pretty surprised it had made it out on the floor. I sort by genre. Then alphabetical, band name/last name. As far as sorting within one band or artist, I don't bother. I am in the process of making tabs for the letters in each section. Here are the (too many) genres. Classic Rock, Modern Rock, Hip Hop, Funk/Soul/RnB, International, Jazz, Big Band/Crooner/Exotica, County, Spoken Word, Ambient/Noise, Metal, Soundtracks, 80's ish, Blues, Unfiled My 45s are a mess and are sorted kinda by genre and not at all alphabetical. I just sort of have an idea what case a record is in...sometimes.

JAMOOOL posted:Crazy that Ween's last record was 15 years ago and yet they seem to be more popular than they ever were. Those recent live reissues are on my local store's shelf and he remarked that there's this huge demand in store for Ween stuff. Particularly among young people, like teenagers...most of whom weren't even alive when quebec came out. We chatted about this for a minute and as I was leaving he got a phone call asking if they had any Ween in stock. It's unreal. What's the explanation for this? Did a song of theirs appear somewhere? Is the YouTube algorithm leading people to Ween? Is it just an insane amount of word-of-mouth and shitposting? I mean yeah it rules but what gives? caligulamprey posted:The kids these days all grew up watching the Spongebob Movie DVD on a loop and Ocean Man is imprinted on their brains, All Star-style.

And here I was lolling that the Foo Fighters Dee Gees record hit $200. I ruined my resale by opening mine though. Also lolling that Skrillex's Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites is worth that much on vinyl too. Both of those I got at MSRP from the local shop.

The bulk of my collection these days is made up of Blue Note and Deutsche Gramophone, so I organise by catalogue number. The rest is organised by where I put it back on the shelf.
