I know we all have bands you love or admire, but yet when you look into your collection you realize . . . shit I don't own any of their albums. 
For me it's:
Bruce Springsteen
Kyuss
BRMC
Black Flag
The Fugees

got CD's but would like vinyl of:
Nirvana
AIC
just scored a 45 of TV Party at a garage sale for a buck
both very nice...I always find that Black Flag cover art is disturbing--Henry Rollins pure something and all should open there ears to him and his music...
go shopping
Not sure why I haven't gotten around to picking up any of their stuff...
Physically own? or are we counting digital also (i.e. downloading :shh:)?

Maybe I should stop buying some of this other crap, until I get some of the good stuff back?
Tell us about meeting Henry! I'd love to hear any stories you have! I've never met HR but did share a few emails with him regarding the writer Max Frisch. He seems to make a lot of time for fans.
I don't have any Black Flag/Rollins, that's what I'm saying! For shame. Well, maybe a few singles on itunes, but yeah, the different incarnations of BF has thrown me off too, I think that's probably why I haven't seeked out too much.
I saw Henry at one of his spoken word shows probably 10 years ago (highly recommended!) after reading one of his books, and after the show my friend and I went to eat at Roxy's in Portland, and on our way back to the car, we noticed a group of people standing outside the venue, and sure enough, there was Henry, so we went over to check it out. He was standing in the middle of a crowd of people talking and taking questions, and was completely awesome. He talked about early Black Flag shows, other artists he admired, concert artwork, etc. etc. He took pictures with fans (Charlie's Angel's gun pose!) and signed my ticket stub. I didn't get a pic because this was back in the crappy flip phone camera days and I knew mine wasn't up to the challenge, but when I said, "Nice to meet you" and shook his hand, he kind of bowed down. Very cool guy. He probably was out there for an hour talking with everyone (and I have no idea how long he had already been there by the time I arrived). It was interesting to see him in person; He's a big guy of course, but short, and I was behind him, so I had perfect view of his black flag tattoo on his neck:) It's interesting that you've emailed him, because that night, I saw him give his email address to a fan to answer a list of questions he had. Finally, he said he had to go, because he was freezing cold, and everyone laughed. It was not that cold, lol. Ahh, the Pacific Northwest!
Anyway, he definitely went above and beyond with fans. He's a great guy.
Hey Brian! I hope you don't mind if I jump in here...a great place to start with Black Flag is Damaged. It's the first release with Henry on vocals. I can make you a copy, if you are interested. I also have plenty of Henry's spoken word stuff on CD, and can make copies of that as well. Next to Pearl Jam, he is one performer I will go see again and again and again. And as curlygirly9 mentioned, he goes above and beyond with his fans (I've met him several times, and he is always cool).

Which spoken word DVDs are your favorites?
As for the spoken word stuff, on CD: everything from Think Tank (1998), through Spoken Word Guy vol. 1 & 2 (released in 2010), including Talk Is Cheap vols. 1-4. He mixes in his life and observations, along with politics. I also would include the Eric the Pilot CD, which is a very funny story.
On DVD: Up For It, Uncut From NYC, and his most recent, 50 (this was filmed in D.C. on his 50th birthday, where he did two sold out shows that night--I managed to make it to the second show, which was worth the 6 hr. drive).
Rolling Stones
BRMC
