Remembering the legendary drummer, James Gadson. "Some drummers are soulful. Some drummers are funky. Some drummers are rockin'. Some drummers are swinging, but NO drummer has impacted the art of breakbeat drumming like James Gadson," said Questlove. Gadson was 86.

It was an unforgettable night at Wrensilva for the Discogs Listening Room, where Billy Idol and Adrian Younge shared records that influenced them. Thank you to Novena Carmel for leading these conversations, and to everyone who joined us for this intimate evening of stories and sound.

61 years ago, the gloves came off on 'Bringing It All Back Home.' On this album, Bob Dylan laid the groundwork for the next couple of decades of rock ‘n’ roll and set the gold standard for abstract expressionism in song. https://disc.gs/4sL6u6F

"There’s so much story being told with a record. Not only the creation of it but where that record has been, and how many hands it’s passed through." - Poly-Ritmo

Sorted by genres and artist plus some chaos. Some of the CDs I started buying in 1992. Forgive the blocked out family photos. @discogsofficial.bsky.social

Genre then alpha

Loving all the renewed interest lately in Chicago's west side stalwart, Out of the Past Records. Went there a bunch of times over the years with my late dad. Always enjoyed chopping it up with Charlie and Marie! youtu.be/QWxu_Z1gUE4?... via @discogsofficial.bsky.social

Punk’s early years were defined by women who shattered conventions and pushed boundaries — both sonically and socially. https://disc.gs/4seXgQs

"It’s so easy to access music now that you can get lost. Having that limitation — the physical record — it helps you bring something more authentic, something more honest," says Italian DJ and fashion photographer, Sara Mautone.

Every time film director Christopher Bickel saw 'Whipped Cream & Other Delights' for under a dollar, he bought it. All around the world, dozens of collectors were doing the exact same thing.

RIP to Phil Campbell, legendary guitarist and member of Motörhead. "He always led with his gift of guitar, and carried a great sense of humour, but most of all, Phil led with his heart," said the band.

Jazz/instrumental, classical, and Everything Else, organized alphabetically by artist/composer last name or band name within each of those three categories. I keep new acquisitions separate (organized the same way) and mix them into the collection once a year or so.

Genre > artists alphabetical > albums and singles chronological @discogsofficial.bsky.social

Ah, the old debate. Roughly by genre and chronology(alpha within that), but also by label when appropriate.

These bands pushed metal into a more mathematical dimension. https://disc.gs/47xuD8z

Inside a Family Record Store That Refuses To Quit “Never get rid of what you got, because you never know when it’s going to come back.” - Charlie Joe Henderson, founder of Out of the Past Records.

This isn't all of my collection but I def have my own system: House/Techno: by region (US/UK/France), then sub-region (Chicago/Detroit), then by label or artist depending on what is most prominent. Disco: alpha by artist or some labels grouped Downtempo/Soul/Funk/Jazz: alpha by artist

My vinyl collection Alphabeticalised but by first name (I would normally do surname, but this way it matches my @discogsofficial.bsky.social list)

25 years ago, legendary duo Daft Punk released 'Discovery.' In 135,000 Collections, this influential album features the funky French house track, "One More Time."

My record collection setup? And yes it’s all cataloged. @discogsofficial.bsky.social

My collection is sorted by genre, then by artist (alpha), and then chronologically…mostly 😆🤘🏻 @discogsofficial.bsky.social

@discogsofficial.bsky.social There’s a system.

The old setup, the new setup

Like @closetotheedge.bsky.social: Alphabetically by artist, each artist's releases are sorted chronologically (remasters to the date of the original recording), box sets are separate on the top of the shelf. (Vinyl is in another place, only partly sorted at the moment.) @discogsofficial.bsky.social

My collection is sorted alphanumerically and by release date. Some genres along with various artists compilations are in a different room. @discogsofficial.bsky.social

By genre, alphabetical, or pure chaos? Whatever your method, we want to see your record collection setup. Tag @discogsofficial.bsky.social for a chance to be featured on our feed.
