Seems as good a place as any to mention my recent purchase of two vinyl copies of Shut Down Volume 2 on the original rainbow label. One for display in an album frame and one for the archive.
I now have the original releases of every vinyl studio album with the exception of CATP and 20/20. I have gotten them all by shopping and scouring the record bins of countless yard sails, used record stores, and bargain bins without resorting to mailorder or ebay. The fun is in the hunt
But I would agree that being a completist for BB CDs would be a monumental...and possibly pointless task. I already have single cd issues, the first series of twofers, the second series, and so on. Not to mention the seemingly endless series of best of releases. I think I'm going to focus more on boots and SOTs I dont have.
