I'm up to 63 this time.

You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all.

51 in their entirety and parts of 7 or 8 others.

I'm down to 11, if you only count albums that I heard in their entirety.

I own most of them and have heard them all with the exception of Los Jaivas' album Alturas de Machu Picchu (#93).

I have heard about 47 (a quick listing), not counting albums I have only sampled.

That number should increase soon, as several of them are on my list of to be listened to soon.

Probably because I copied the link and had used it yesterday to add my Hot Rats bio.

Once you use a link and until you delete the cookies, it remains red instead of blue.

I bet you haven't read many of the paganinio threads, if you think this thread is fun.

I'm still the record holder, having heard only 11 albums from the Top 100.

Very interesting question... I own about 800 CDs (not all prog, but prog is my favorite type of music). I was surprised to see that I own 65 of the top 100. So overall It makes me feel good about making the right choices!

I own exactly 50

I restrict myself to pre-1976 generally for reasons which are not disrepectful of later music.

There are 8 pre-1976 albums on the list that i don't own. I have heard all but one of those and will try and buy them as soon as I can. The Yezda Ufa album is the odd one out and seems very interesting.
