I've been on a mission to listen to every CD in my collection. I go through approximately 48 discs a week at work, and started at the beginning of 2009. I'm on L now,/quote]
I did that once, slogging through something like 9,000+ tracks, don't remember the album count though. If you have a number of bands with large discographies to wade through, i can suggest that it's much easier to listen to the whole thing in chronological-by-album as opposed to alphabetical order-by-band. It significantly breaks up the tedium.
I really need to get into Anathema.
Start with A Natural Disaster; work your way backwards. At least that's how I was instructed to do it.
