probably not really cool or respected on here but loving getting all records by the fratellis, arctic monkeys and courteeners.

Toto for me.
Hugely underrated in my opinion, great muso`s and easily one of the best live bands I`ve seen ( on many occasions ).
Pride and joy would be a vinyl copy of farenheit album signed by the whole band,including the late ,great Jeff Porcaro.

Love the Dune soundtrack by Toto especially Big Battle..

Has to be Rush for me.. My pride and joy is a 10" red vinyl of the Body electric from Grace under Pressure.

Ive got loads of picture/Ltd stuff ..but on the genesis theme ive got a blue 12" Match of the day e.p. did it have 'catch the pidgeon on it or something ??...

Anything Chameleons-orientated gets my vote, even the spin off bands like the Sons of God, Sun and the Moon and all sorts. I've not got absolutely everything though.

Though pride and joy, inadvertently, in the collection is a copy of From the Lion's Mouth by the Sound on CD. I picked it up because I love the band and now it's deleted it's going for a song.

i got it brand new at hmv m/cr ..must have set me back £3 ..ive got a red vinyl Hemispheres , a pink Miss you' Stones ..a gold double Beatles Love songs ..........etc etc

love Toto, check out a song called I Will Remember, awesome

those ac/dc digipack cds (on Epic) ive got all the bon scott ones apart from dirty deeds and 74 jailbreak and back in black, albums after that .................

ive got a whitesnake double book style 2cd set of 1987 and slip of the tongue

thats had some serious action.

also def leppard hysteria, metallica black album, bon jovi crossroad darkness permission to land and motown ultimate hits those cds are pretty scratched, ive got quite a few deep purple cds as well

my pride and joy?, probably my Beatles cds amongst others

There are only a few bands I have absolutely EVERYTHING by.
Cheap Trick
The Beatles
The Who (right down to USA promos on Decca from 65)
Slade - I supplied masters for part of the recent reissue series.

Bad Co an Free!
also have a big collection of Kate Bush [courtesy of my late wife!]
not that I'll ever want to play it?

I think you know some of what I am going to put John, Genesis, Marillion, Pendragon, Journey, Beatles just to mention a few, I pretty much have everything they do of everybody I like. my cds used to fill two complete walls from floor to ceiling,and my dvds used to fill the other two walls, I have had to put them in a dedicated room, I am not even going to get into how many mp3s I have got, to keep complete harmony in my house, I only have about a 1,000 cds in my lounge where my hifi is nowadays. I would move them too but I had the floor concreted where my speakers are (wooden floors and all that).

@john fv one band I have never seen even though I have been a fan as long as they have been around, I could`nt agree with you more about neal schon a much underrated guitarist, I`ve got 2 live dvds of journey absolute magic, Mark from Vankwish is a big fan of journey too.

Everything by RUSH. Triple sleeve All the World's a Stage, aforementioned Body Electric, ultra rare Not Fade Away 7''. Hemispheres pic disc (side 1 both sides) Permanent Waves with newspaper headline showing plus loads more etc

@john fv I only found out about journeys last tour after the event, I was in rimmers in leyland and I heard two guys talking about it the week after it had took place, I was gutted to say the least.

Loads of Genesis stuff incl. two bootleg CD's and picture disc of Foxtrot album,

Rick.

Utterly obsessive about Rory Gallagher got all the records on vinyl and cd and video, dvds, bootlegs, compilations, old posters, 'Jackie' mag cuttings from the 70's (come on now some of you are old enough to remember that teen mag) I could go on LOL. My only regrets are that I never kept the fabric sticker that came with the album Tattoo and old tix from concerts back in the day.
