Which artist do you have the most of?

[Silvercross]

And how many?


Korn (41)

[ZoidbergD]

Smashing Pumpkins (166)

[jerrodh]

Pink Floyd (48)

A pretty low number 'cause I have a VERY diverse assortment of music... I like a lot of different stuff.

[torchedlh]

Rage Against the Machine - ~60
The Beatles - ~ 90 (though 80 are about to be deleted cuz the songs blow)

[macaddicted]

James Taylor ~ 150

There's a reason he was the first artist signed by Apple Records.

[Jackonicko]

Rolling Stones. (Don't ask). Every track from every studio album, plus God knows how many bootlegs..........

Not that many still on the Pod though, where Jimi predominates.

[NiTRO]

Pixies - 64
The Flaming Lips - 51
Prince - 48
Rolling Stones - 46
Sublime - 42

[loki102]

Smashing Pumpkins (147)

[ssper]

Keith Jarrett (219). But that's 35 hours worth (averaging 9.5 min per cut).

Again, I ask, are there any jazz fans who have Ipods? Or are they strictly for the Metal Head/Stoned out/Rockin' Beatle fan?

[Kirk]

The Alan Parsons Project - 135
The Beatles - 72
ZZ Top - 71
Stevie Ray Vaughan - 70
Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen - 65

I love the diversity of music, from metal to reggar, rock to punk. Most would have to be Bowie, followed by Floyd.

Wolfpacker: 84 White Stripes? Their discography excluding Vinyls is 60. 79 Including all the vinyls.

[wolfpacker]

When I posted that I had a live show (I now have 2). Pretty low
quality audience recording someone posted to usenet. But interesting
nonetheless. A lot of the artist at the top of my list have boots adding
to their numbers.

the beatles 134

[loungelizard]

Depeche Mode - 247 songs

[tuffgong]

OMG! You free to have your opinion, but I would think MANY people would disagree.

I have about 180 Beatles songs, including the Past Masters and Antholgy CDs

[MikeM]

Atom and His Package- 107 songs

[stasyna]

The beatles are NOT for everyone.

[m.r.m.]

u2 - 178 (if i remember correctly)

[reorx24]

i agree that the beatles are not for everyone, but they're pretty much the most universally listened to and accepted rock band..... so they may not be for everybody, but they come pretty darn close.

On topic - probly Led Zep (complete discography.... too lazy to count the exact number of songs)

next would be Bob Dylan and the Beatles

[braves_01]

The Smashing Pumpkins - 115 (SD, MCATIS, Machina, Machina II, Greatest Hits, Judas O)

Korn - 81 (Debut, Life is Peachy, Follow the Leader, Issues, Untouchables)

System of a Down - 48 (Debut, Toxicity, Steal This Album!, demos)

Some Radiohead, Metallica, Linkin Park, other nu-metal

[Timmy Yak]

Our Lady Peace - 64
Dave Matthews Band - 56 but I do not have all of my cd's on here so I know I have more than OLP.

[jstn4102]

greenday [34]

Thomas
30GB 3G Ipod, 16GB free, only had it for a week and I have more than 1200 CDs (I know it?s pathetic, but I can?t stop buying new ones), so I will fill it up within the next few weeks.

[square]

[deftdrummer1]

DEFTONES 230

[noah]

phish- far over 500... and that is just with mostly the live albums, i don't have most of their studio stuff on my comp/pod.

after that, probably bob marley, sublime, and reel big fish in that order.

edit: i forgot to mention, i listen to jazz too, so you're not the only one, ssper.

edit #2: i also forgot to mention, twice, that the complete discography of operation ivy or the white stripes doesn't really add up to many songs

[Amin]

I have about 40 pac songs

[mikey]

top six:
Pearl Jam- 309
Bob Marley- 243
Miles Davis- 193
Beatles- 135

I am a big Zappa fan myself, have 451 Zappa songs myself on the iPod. My question------------- Which are your favorite CDs of his. Myself, I love You can't do that on stage Volume 1, especially the audience poetry in Yellow Snow.

[bebop717]

Flaming Lips?149 Tracks
Charlie Parker?181 Tracks
Ben Folds (with and without the 5)?121 Tracks
Radiohead?88 Tracks
John Coltrain?88

[an0therdumbsn]

afi - 75 - 100
nin- all studio releases
radiohead - all studio releases

[thenightfly42]

The Bobs (110), an amazing a cappella group. All of their recorded work except one album, which I didn't like anything on.

[psm0110]

By far I have more Coil files than anything else, all their releases + all bonus material from their site and live performances.

It's all 100% legit as well. I have a library of CD discographies of Coil, Pink Floyd, Legendary Pink Dots, Front 242, KMFDM, and many others, but those are easily the largest. Working in colege radio in the mid-90s I ended up with alot of Techno-Industrial.

Now I buy mostly classical DVD-A, which I can't rip. *shrug*

[NiTRO]

Wow. Coil. Haven't heard that name in a long time. Good stuff.

[Commodus]

I have a big (though certainly not complete) Underworld collection:

Dubnobasswithmyheadman
Cowgirl/Dirty Epic EP
Second Toughest in the Infants
Born Slippy EP (US)
Pearls Girl EP (US)
Beaucoup Fish
Everything Everything
Cowgirl EP (2000)
A Hundred Days Off
Two Months Off EP (one-CD European version)
Dinosaur Adventure 3D EP (UK CD 1)
Dinosaur Adventure 3D EP (UK CD 2)

The sad thing is that, even though I own all that, I know that there are absolutely gobs more singles and EPs out there for me to get.

[studogvetmed]

Top six
Garth Brooks: 77
Billy Joel: 74
Barenaked Ladies: 73
Chicago: 70
The Cure: 47
Weird Al: 42

[Mobile]

Aaliyah - 165

Followed by

Green Day - 110

[godcha]

Well I started reripping my cd collection but for sure I'll have the most songs of Sarah McLachlan since she's my number one artist [got all her albums & dvds including fanclub cds]; I also got all albums of Nirvana [including all the cd singles] and most albums of Mike Scott/The Waterboys...

[Roots]

My top five goes a little something like this:

1) Various Wynton Marsalis albums, including the 7 disc Village Vanguard album (not a whole lot of tracks, but most tunes are 7-10min)

2) Beck- I have everything Beck, probably 180 tracks

3) Aphex Twin- Almost every studio album 160 tracks

4) Boards of Canada- 120 tracks

5) Bela Fleck- mostly his bluegrass stuff- bout 90 tracks

Jazz takes up the most space by far, just spread out over 50 diff artists

[scottishPod]

Iron Maiden - 161 Songs
Megadeth - 156 Songs.......12 Albums

[mookiemeister]

This is probably a stupid question, but how do you figure out how many songs you have of each artist? You didn't go and count them one by one, right?

[wolfpacker]

using iTunes, this is easy using the "Browse" feature. Select an artist, then select all albums and it shows the # of songs at the bottom.

[mookiemeister]

I don't have a Mac so I can't run iTunes. Is there a program on Windows I can use to get this info?

[SalsaVibe]

10 Led Zeppelin/29

An old guy with eclectic tastes I guess.
Bring us iTunes for Windows!!!

[Kirk]

mookiemeister - I have my songs organized into folders by each artist. All I have to do is open that folder and the window tells me how many items are in that folder.

Thank you midpack. I recognize the names of all those groups, unlike several other posts in here. :D

[zerock]

Smashing Pumpkins - 285 songs, 20.6 hours, 1.13GB

[SalsaVibe]

[ToddW]

How do you record the radio show? I love listening to Howard in the morning, but I tend to miss quite a bit.

[SalsaVibe]

I don't get howard stern in my area so someone sends it to me on a monthly basis.. I have about 3 years worth of howard stern on mp3/cd

I'm over 600 now and haven't ripped the audio from the DVD yet.

Without actually counting them, it would be a tossup between Deftones, System of a Down or Tool.
