How Many Miles Davis ' Cds Do You Own??

[Joe G]

Looks like about 24.

[mikeweil]

Ca. 70 if I count all discs in box sets.

If I had the money for all I'd like to have, it would be more than 100 ...

I get Jim's point of view - I buy him more for the sidemen .....

[Spontooneous]

I'm in the 100-150 group, counting multiples as one. Lots of duplications in there, multiple Sony releases.

Add in the LPs and it goes well past 200.

[Brad]

Counting everything, it's probably in the 50 to 60 range.

[Jazz Kat]

Well let's see. LP- Round Midnight, cds- KOB, Milestones, Session 57, Cookin, Workin, Relaxin. That's it. Couple cheasy compilations too.

Im pretty sure im in the 50+ range, especially if you count box sets per disc (which I think you should.)

I am astounded to hear that some of you have such paltry Miles collections. Although I understand not being freaks, he has atleast a dozen or so ESSENTIAL jazz albums. Considering that I dont think its a stretch to say a majority of all jazz available developed from Miles' innovation, I figure pretty much any jazz fan would like a great deal of his music. But I suppose when you start with Your'e Under Arrest I understand why one doesnt branch off from there.

Of course, I only have 3 Duke cds though.

[sidewinder]

I must be heading towards the 200 range, with about 100 original and reissue vinyls, some Mosaics and most of the Columbia CD boxes. I think I have most of his LPs from the 1950s through to the early 90s in original or first-reissue form. Yikes !

It's always a real pleasure though to delve into the Miles 'Mother'-lode.

I have 93 CDs with Miles Davis as leader. There are others I haven't counted where he appears as a sideman.

[medjuck]

I checked in at 151-200 and hardly any of them are from after 1970. (Well maybe 20 or so.)

[jazzbo]

Hmmm. . . I think I checked the wrong box. . . .

I have more than I "thought."

[couw]

16 CDs

16 LPs

I don't even like Miles...!

at least there is quite some doubling between the CDs and LPs.

[dave9199]

97 cds in 36 releases (I'm adding the Cellar Door in this). I didn't add 2 cdrs I made of stuff not on any of my other cds. If I did, I'd be 1 away from 100-150. This is no duplicates, lots o' box sets and from 1948-1975; no 80-90's stuff.............................ever.

i think you're mistaken. miles doesn't play on the booker ervin recording.

sorry, i couldn't resist.

[Eric]

I am probably around 80, the majority of which are post-1967. Generally speaking, I am an acoustic guy, although with Miles, I find his electric stuff particularly compelling.
