I have so much illegal music on my computer that's basically doing me no good since I started using spotify. I still buy around 15 albums a year or so but really that's nothing compared to how much music I have access to all the time.
Yeah, I also about 600 albums on my omputer, but like I said I only listen to like 12 albums regularly, and over half of those I don't even own, like I've been listening to a lot of Die Antwoord, Gil Scott Heron, Here Come The Mummies, and Eliza Doolitte, but I don't own anything from them, I just listen on youtube or spotify. Mostly though I listen to the Chili Peppers (I own all of their albums) and John Frusciante (I own one album currently and I'm planning on just buying all the rest more or less at once sometime soon).
I wonder if it was a hassle getting every Chili Peppers album, as they have a bunch.
Not really, I bought like half at Hastings and then ordered the rest on amazon. Actually I think theres a live CD I don't have, and some "special edition" releases of the albums I have, but those don't really count.
That's no fun to order things online, kind of takes the fun out of finding things.
I guess I hadn't thought about it that way, and I was sorta more concerned about getting some of the music, because I didn't have all of it on my computer before I bought them. Plus I wanted the liner notes. I love liner notes.
I hate albums that don't have liner notes.
Like This Will Destroy You's "Young Mountain" booklet opens up and is just a closeup of the fur of the bear from the cover, no text.
Or then you have stuff like Radiohead's "King of Limbs", where the album is just a thin piece of cardboardish paper and it's just the CD. It feels kind of like I got ripped off after having "In Rainbow's" elaborate packaging.
Yeah. I got a lot of the Chili Peppers re-released versions just because Flea always has a story about where the band was at at the time in them. I love reading the little stories like that.
Those do sound fun to read.
What I still think is cool, is that in the Foo Fighter's "Wasting Light", it comes with a piece of the master tape.

I never picked you for a Die Antwoord fan? They are brilliant but freak me out. I have actually never listened to a complete album of them. Not really my thang.
