How is 'complete discography' being defined? Do you own every BBs single, even the foreign picture sleeve issues and every greatest hits ever released? Or do you just mean the main studio albums, not including multiply-reissued material? Every officially released studio recording? Albums and/or singles?

If it's the former, then there is no band's catalogue i own 'everything' of.

But I do own every proper album by:
BBs/Brian Wilson
Blind Melon
Jefferson Airplane
Beatles
Gillian Welch
Kula Shaker
Stephen Stills

We are talking about STUDIO albums only - live albums or singles not included.

Hey Loaf - I own most  of the Hot Tuna albums by Jefferson Airplane alumni and really love those but I have no J.A  in my collection.  Which J.A. album do you recommend as their best?

I bought that album, and I tried, and I tried, and I TRIED to dig it....but I couldn't. They lost their edge. I love Gillian though....she really contributed to the feel of the music with her amazing 80's keyboarding and synthesizing....did I mention that I love her?

It was absolutely terrible.

Beck for me too. I'm not as crazy about the Clapton era as others are. However, I will say the the Page lineup was the bestas far as  live performance... shame that the material was so weak at that point.

Re: Stephen Stills.
I have Just Roll Tape, and it's a fascinating document. The sound quality is excellent. Half the songs on it have not been released, and though you can kind of see why, they are much better than the unreleased demos from the Buffalo Springfield box set. It's also great to hear an early version of Treetop Flyer. The 'Stills Alone' version doesn't cut it (that electro-acoustic sound is half the problem...for a guy with an extensive collection of Martin acoustic guitars, he sure manages to get a sucky electro-acoustic sound).

But if you ever hear Stills' King Biscuit Flower Hour solo show from '75-76, that is probably the definitive Treetop Flyer.

Re: Jefferson Airplane.
My personal favourite album is 'After Bathing at Baxter's' which i own several times, but that is their most psychedelic and 'far out' album. If you're a Hot Tuna fan, you might prefer a later album where Jorma gets more songwriting credits. 'Volunteers' is their last great album as a band, and has Jorma's version of Good Shepherd. If i remember correctly, 'Bark' has a song on it called Wild Turkey, that Jorma originally demoed with David Crosby and the Dead during their 1970 jam sessions. i like that one too.

Jorma's best playing has to be on Embryonic Journey from 'Surrealistic Pillow'. Solo acoustic. One guitar, though it sounds like three.

The JA splinter projects of the early 70s were better than the JA albums, albums like 'Blows Against The Empire', which has one of David Crosby's best co-writes Have You Seen the Stars Tonight. Spacy in all senses of the word (or at least three of them).

Their last two albums actually were recorded without Gillian, "Get Ready" (2001) and "Waiting For The Sirens' Call" (2005). But I agree, especially "Waiting..." is an uninspired mess. "Get Ready" has some good songs on it, but it's too long, and nowhere near as good as their earlier work with Gillian. But they split up last year, a wise decision......

I'll have to check out those two albums...And you're right about Buck Dharma (Don Roeser); he has to be among the most underrated musicians. You rarely see his name mentioned these days when the topic of "great guitarists" comes up. But it should!
