counting cocs

[mmmender]

we're just talking cd's here, not vinyl......roughly how many cocteau twins cd's would you say you currently own? remember, if you own a box set that's an additional 10 !!!

i voted....and i left off a 500+ cos i thought it would be a tad unfair. ;)

Are we counting Moon and the Melodies?

[dynamine]

over 100 w/3 box sets and different versions of singles,albums,
promos,and boots(if those count).i'm proud of my
"cocteau cabinet".maybe i'll post pictures.

closing in on 200

[dprid]

200+ for me, & I've probably got more vinyl than CD!

Hey, you've misspelled 'cocks'! Also, by only putting '200+' as a category, that's a little unfair, isn't it? I mean, how can I be specific about the many, many cocks I've had by just voting '200+'? And another thing, I...uh..........

Oh, you meant Cocteau Twins, didn't you?


:o

[iceblink555]

I think I'm in the "41-50" bracket, but I'm not sure what all to include. Bootlegs? Pressed boots only or CD-R's too? Tribute CD's? Interview Pic Disc? This stuff would add another 30-40 to my total. --Alan

I have "61-70" (so far). I've included anything related to the Cocteau Twins.

[someotherian]

just counted 46 on my shelf.
sounds a bit pathetic really.. though still seems to be above the average based on current poll results.
and the fact that my ct discs make up about a fifth of all my cds also makes it sound less bad, i think.

[mmmender]

think again.

Why thank you Jana - my bank manager agrees with you :)

I'll post a picture of my CD collection sometime. Problem is it has to be a 'proper' photo rather than digital as the digital isn't wide enough angle to get it all in as it covers a 12 x 6.5 foot wall and the entire top shelf is CT! I've nearly finished a film though - as soon as it's done and it's developed I'll post it.

I think I've probably got less than 20 on cd.... still replacing my vinyl...

strangely enough, I was going through my old video compilations I made when I was younger, and I seem to have three of the Mercury/Cocteaus ones... as well as Pearly Dewdrops from MTV... all these random cocteaus bits I forgot I had...

[JohnnyV]

> 400

[Jeek]

I've got 36... All are on CD. All are offcial releases.

does the unfinished cd count as a cd?

[greenbelly]

ok. you all need to share some of your most rarest music with us. i thought i owned everything and i know i am no where near 200 cd's. that's amazing and i'm jealous...btw, is the unfished cd circulating? are the demos circulating?

[iceblink555]

greenbelly, I've never heard of any copies of the unfinished album circulating. I think the closest thing was a pic of it that was posted here on the forums.

Some of the demo versions, e.g. In Our Angelhood, have circulated quite a bit on bootlegs and can sometimes be found on file-sharing networks like Soulseek (www.slsknet.org).

The high CD counts are due to different international versions of the same Album, i.e., Japanese Milk & Kisses vs. U.S. version, etc.

The unfinished album will never be released according to Simon R.

One Million!

[sanvean]

i only have 12 cds. i hope to get more because i like cocteau's a lot. however, they are not cheap, so maybe it takes some time...

also i can't imagine someone having 200 cocteau's cds...! wow. you must be rich or something.
