True to my moniker

Without counting I'd say I have at least 30 Monk LPs. And for Miles certainly more than 20. Mingus, only about a dozen or so.

I also have at least 20 Brubeck albums (hey, how'd he get in here?)

Then there are maybe a dozen for the Kingston Trio but that was from high school and college days. blues4ever, were you pulling our collective legs there?

The thing for me is with most artists I'm content with one or two of their albums. I just don't find enough interest for what to my ears is largely duplication. Now I'm sure some may question my love for Monk based on that. All I can say is I like hearing the same number on maybe ten different albums because each is a little different, and I love whatever he does. There are just not many artist that I own more than half-dozen of their records -- Beefheart, Dylan, Doors, Talking Heads, Armstrong, Basie, Mulligan, Getz, Weather Report.

Obviously I'm excluding classical composers here.
