I don't think I have any complete discographies, and I have a few thousand 45s here. My brain is just not oriented to want to collect everything that a label or artist put out.

Yeah, each label has atleast a couple records that I really don't care to own...I'm not that much of a collectro nerd to posses the whole catalog.
I know of a guy who amassed every New Zealand pressed 45 on the local pink label Tamla Motown imprint, that's a shitload of Motown & sub-label 45s, he then decided to move back to the UK & broke the collection up to sell it in bits. He seemed a bit odd, even for an English guy. Pretty amazing achievement though.

I actually do feel a slight urge to "collect ???em all!" But the time and money involved usually seems too prohibitive for such a relatively small satisfaction.
I do, however, have the entire Puma Strut discography. All eight of ???em.
I almost bid on the Explosions - Jockey Ride 45 last week so I could complete my Gold Cup discography, but then I realized I don't really like the track that much so it wouldn't be worth the dough just to have em all.

Really? There's a good chunk of tepid second stringers on Black Jazz. I used to sweat that stuff when I was green and flush with record buying mania, but I rarely listen to a lot of the BJ catalogue that I have.

I was obsessed with trying to stay abreast of all the current small label 45s there for a while, although I missed a 45 or two here and there. For the most part I bought these new when they came out, but I definitely have all or most of the pre-2005 Desco, Daptone, Soul Fire, Truth & Soul, Timmion, Rehash, Memphix, and a few other labels with just a couple of 45s, plus some of the reissue series like Jazzman and Funk45. I'm not quite as into it as I was before, so I'm probably not going to spend tons to fill in the few gaps here and there. I do wish I had more of the Bully 7s, although I've been able to plug a few hole with reissues.

no sniggering at the back there please
It's a worthwhile thing they're doing there
no doubt them shits is hot yo,wish i had em all

I have got the Soul Fire Records discography complete (including The Explorers 45 plus the Raindeer Runners 45).
Then I shoul have the Timmion Records complete.
But the one thing I'm proud of is my complete Funky Ass Records (Kool Keith) discography.
collecting is bourgeoise consumerism only suitable for syphlitic non-artist pustules.
Yeah, it is on TBHR-003 which is their first album "Stilling, Still Dreaming"
The original version with the picture cover goes for about $100-120 but you can probably find a used copy of the repress for about $40-50
peace

Nice one. How many releases are there? I can only think of Listen to My Turbo, the Rap n Scratch 12 and the Rap n Scratch LP off the top of my head.
