Sometimes I can, and sometime not--and when I can't it's a bit frustrating to say the least. Recently I misplaced a movie I wanted to watch: The Iron Giant. At any rate, for bands, groups, ie. The Allman Brothers I place under A, and Beatles under B. So for the band, so And You Will Know Us for me, would have gone under A, and Spencer Davis Band, under S. But like you said, it gets tricky then if Spencer Davis records alone solo. For solo artist like James Tayler, John Denver, I put them under their last name: T & D. To further a maddening process, I put stuff in categories like jazz, classical, etc. For Classical composers, I just lump them under the composer name: Mozart, M.<br /><br />I'd read somewhere that one collector just files his stuff like this, no genre separation like jazz, rock, or etc., so files by their first names, so that A Certain Ratio, would be next to Aaron Copland, and he would be next to the Allman Brothers, and they'd be next to Art Ensemble of Chicago and so on. It's different, but I guess it works for that collector of music.El Voxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05985563041511492981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2587309093892894426.post-57160923716326067452011-04-11T10:41:20.925-07:002011-04-11T10:41:20.925-07:00There are enough double CD's and special packa...There are enough double CD's and special packages that the spine issue is not so bad as you'd think.<br /><br />It does take a little more time to locate something, but is easier (for me) than sorting through boxes in a closet.DiscConnectedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07013919800637508392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2587309093892894426.post-82709734677563848252011-04-11T09:01:10.457-07:002011-04-11T09:01:10.457-07:00Thanks for that shout out, Larry.
Your CD project...Thanks for that shout out, Larry.<br /><br />Your CD project is impressive, but sounds like a great idea. I don't have as many CDs as you do, but condensing space sounds like a great idea. One problem to me would be that you can't read the artist or album title on the spine of the case anymore if they are in those sleeves. How do you deal with that?<br /><br />Classical I almost always file by composer unless it's a compilation or something special that is more of a conductor or artist thing and I don't usually buy those.<br /><br />Great work so far in introducing me to artists I haven't heard of.<br /><br /><br />Lee<br /><a href="http://tossingitout.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Tossing It Out</a><br />Twitter hashtag: #atozchallengeArlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.com
