Dead collection

Not the Grateful Dead but I am trying to get complete collections of artist that have passed one. Unfortunately Zappa is on that list, 60 plus albums? I am getting closer with my Hendrix and Allman bros. What a challenge. Any of you folks "completest? I would love to get a Dead collection going but that will take a while.

    I'm obsessed with owning complete collections of anything blu Ray, cd, vinyl. Even if a copy totally sucks, I need it to complete the collection, I have about 500 blu Rays. I bet 50 are still in plastic.

    I have completest tendencies, but I am finding out that they don't mix well with my vinyl sickness.

    Dead shouldn't be difficult until you get into the Tom. Dick & Harry's picks series.
    Zappa can be had now due to his re-release.
    Bowie out at 25.
    Neil Young is gonna set ya back a bit when he goes.

    I dont use the HT much so I buy a concert Blew Ray once in a while.

    BTW, my Zappa collection is coming along nicely. like only 30 albums to go!

    I think I have all of the Zappa albums that were released before he died. Now I am working on the posthumous release but there have to be twice as many and more appearing every day. I have found that one does not need much other than Zappa he pretty much covered it all.
