A fantastic game to play other than I presume they are only showing the first 100 albums of each letter which are listed alphabetically.

So need to think of bands/Artists starting Ba-Be really

Given that the A's only went from AA-AD I think we're looking at just BA - I'll go for these 3.

Bauhaus
Bad company
Barenaked Ladies

Then possibly

Beastie Boys and The Beatles

Wonder how he's classed B.B. King

Hopefully at last I will be able to track down a record Ive been searching decades for....its doesnt help that I dont know its title or artist....but John Peel played it... oh! I'd say around 30years ago...I met John once and described the song to him...he got it straight away..he said he would have given me a copy of the single but he only had one...but would send me a tape of it....it never came, but I forgive him....

Great website. Really hope there's a 'The Bugs' LP in there, but it's only gone up to the 'D' bit of A. Animals, Angelic Upstarts, Louis Armstrong blah... Can't believe he only had one Abba LP tho. There's got to be a good 10 foot left of 'A's. Would love the 45 degree neck ache fingering thru all that.

So is it genuinely his LP collection?

Right so I've now become aware of what's going on here. It's funny but the first post should have told me what was going on but I clicked the link before reading what it was about. An age old problem of mine.

So next up the 'B's with an A after.

It's amazing what can happen when you read things slowly and correctly isn't it? Really hope this gets completed tho. No hope for the Barron Knights tho is there?
