Complete collections.

In honor of Sarah Jarosz announcing a repress of Build Me Up From Bones and letting some folks complete our get closer to completing their stashes, I may as well post my complete Sarah Jarosz / I’m With Her collection. Not all variants but at least one copy of all of her solo or collaborative releases that I'm aware of. Several signed. I did not include compilations with unique songs but I’m aiming to snipe those too at some point but for now this is what I have. A few of these were obnoxious to find but worth it.

Totally! I picked up the Soft Effects EP reissue the other day. That should be it for a while. Do you know if the Slay on Cue remasters are much different? Spoon records already sound great with no need for remastering IMHO, with the exception of TWMS and Hot Thoughts, which is more due to Fridmann’s mix I think.

Edit: Spelling
TBH I can’t answer that as the only one I have is Telephono and had nothing to compare it with.
I just remembered that I preordered the Gimme Fiction red/white split! that will be my third pressing of it- an original, the 10th anniversary deluxe, and now this one. I can’t recall when it’s supposed to ship... I really do need to keep a spreadsheet of pre-orders 😂
 
I'm much too lazy to dig out all my 45s, but here's my LP collection of all things Doug.

No Halo Benders?
I saw this photo and was going to reply with the same question lol. Halo Benders are good! All things Calvin Johnson does is good too. But lots of people don't like the Halo Benders because both of them share lead vocals and sing at the same time which very unique.

one of my favorite Halo Benders tunes

 
Not quite a complete Belle & Sebastian collection (it’s missing a couple of soundtracks I don’t have much interest in acquiring, plus the Books 7-inch that I absolutely need), but it’s probably worthy of this thread:

8 studio albums, 10 EPs, 2 live albums, a B-sides compilation, and another compilation featuring bands that joined their cruise festival a couple of years back.

(Not pictured: other cruise souvenirs, because that would’ve been a bit much.)

Nice!!

Belle and Sebastian are a band that are a huge blind spot in my collection considering how far up they are on my list of favorite artists. I’ve only got “If You’re Feeling Sinister”. When I started collecting, they didn’t have any fancy limited/color releases so I didn’t feel the need to get any of their standard releases. I’ll get them eventually I’m sure.

Yumi Zouma were a big part of my life in lockdown. I shouldn’t look fondly upon those first couple of months but I do because they were soundtracked by them. A little over a year ago I had absolutely no idea who they were but have since rocketed to the top of my all time favorites list. Thanks for making 2020 not as bad as it could have been Yumi Zouma.

All of mine are standard pressings, nothing colored or limited other than the Jeepster Singles box set (which is numbered). Some of the early ones are from the nice Matador reissue series from the mid-2000s, pressed at RTI. Back then the listed price was $13.99! The glory days.

Yup! I started getting serious about collecting in 2014 so prices have risen significantly since. If the standard pressings were all $14 I’d have absolutely picked them up. It’s hard to justify $25 each plus shipping for the Matador reissues. I’m just hoping I’ll find them in the wild second hand somewhere.
 
My Jonathan Richman (and the Modern Lovers) vinyl collection. First pressing except for the 1st Modern Lovers (a 1978 issue) and I, Jonathan which was just (re)issued on vinyl for the first time last year. Subsequent records I have on CD, which are boxed away for now.

Holy shit I’m jealous. I’m missing 88, Goes Country (which are two of my favorites by him), rockin with, and Jonathan sings. He’s actually really fun to collect because these are relatively hard to come by. All except the recent I, Jonathan and & the modern lovers s/t record I’ve managed to find in the wild.

This inspired me to finally listen to I, Jonathan after reading about it for a long time and holy shit I'm pissing myself.
 
Alright, these are some projects of mine that are just missing a couple
Atmosphere and related.
I actually have a copy of Felt 2 on the way, and 3 I plan on getting from RSD
