“One thousand records across five hundred thirty-five artists and three hundred eighty-one labels tells a very specific story about how you move through music. The seventies rule the room with two hundred ninety-five entries, backed closely by the eighties at two hundred twenty-three, and you are not messing around when it comes to depth. Look at the heavy runs on the shelves. Wheatus stretches thirty-one deep with twenty-two records locked into that 2000 to 2014 corridor from Wheatus through Only You. Pink Floyd runs twenty-one deep from 1967 to 1995 between The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn and Pulse. Black Sabbath holds fifteen straight from Paranoid through SeventhStar, and Rush sits solidly at seventeen. Behind the scenes, the production and mastering footprint shows up in the credits. Bob Ludwig touches four records, while Brian Gardner, Barry Mraz, Rob Kingsland, and Robin Black each show up across three. This is a massive crate with serious dedication to the long haul of a discography. Keep digging.”
