I was thinking this SAME thing tonight (kinda). I was listening to "Engine #9" on the way to Target (sorry Tony!) and it occurred to me I never listened to the rest of that album. Now that's blasphemy Mr. Bobo.

damn. come to think. I haven't even listened to the whole album

Honestly, this is why I try to keep my collection down to one expedite. I know where everything is and I'm tryin to keep it like that

its a nice feeling knowing you can always dig in the crates without leaving the house. i know theres some things ive only listened to quickly once. what might have been wack once, i might liking a couple years later, too.

yep. re-bought stuff with no memory of owning it, tracked down a song and artist only to find it already back home. done this with well known stuff, most recently with 'gears'. how the f did i forget i had it?!? i think you start blending pictures, articles, and web info with your own piles after a while. like on the recent weekly finds, that 'united sounds' LP kevin found, im positive i have that. or do i? its weird. for me, being away from the collection for months at a time only adds to the problem. i bring home crates of 'road finds' and i end up with crazy doubles all the time.

its true, at a certain point, you will never hear everything youve got. at least i wont... but its STILL fun to find more. i make it a point to stack up all 'new arrivals' and at least play a whole side before filing it. this is how i find both samples and tracks for compilations. this leads to an insane 'new arrival stack', but i just power through 20-30 at a time, all day when i can, while doing work or whatever. if they suck its faster: 'what the hell? get this offa my record player!'

So on Nate's show he was playing this dope joint, and when I called him I was like "Yo son, what is this shit?" He was like "Yo son, this is that Groove Holmes 'Onsayada Joy' joint."

I was like "Yo, I have that joint."

How often does this happen to you? How well do you know your record collection?

Your obviously not a real head who knows the deal.

Hey AlienIVERSON,

This happens to me all the time. Sometimes it's in the form of songs I hear out, or on mix CDs, and am like, 'damn that's dope! I need that!', or once a-ko sent me this 'secret' break. Turns out the thing was sitting in my collection for months.

The other thing that happens, is I get reminded about some record because of the hotness, and I forget that I actually own it. You ever forget that you even own certain records? Sometimes I forget that I even have multiples of these things. Hence the time when I pulled out 5 copies of Hurdy Gurdy Man.

Peace,

Watch it, sucka!!!!
































....just kidding. Carry on, my good man!!!!

I was listening to Paul Nice's Breaks 4Days cd for a long time last year, and every time "get thy bearings" came on at the end, I would just think "man, I would do anything to own this song." I even mgot my girl into worshiping it. I assumed it was some ultra-raer basement recording that I would never own. We were cooking one day and for the hell of it I pulled out Hurdie Gurdie and when "get they bearings" came on, she lost a considerable amount of respect for me.

This has happened countless other times. But the worst is when a producer flips something you threw into the "shite" section. I try and go through the "shite" section every 6 months or so just so that never happens again. It happens almost every week though.
