Discogs Random Item Game

edited February 2021 in Other Music
I love Discogs and I know there are some members on here that use it regularly.

So Discogs has the 'random item' link that gives you a random item out of your collection. The link is located next to the search box when you click 'Collection'. I sometimes use the link to give myself something to listen to when I can't make up my mind. Which happens a lot when you have a large collection.

So we'll play a game here, click the random item link, or if you're on the app, you just have to click the 3 dots and select random item, then post the first thing that comes up. Doesn't matter what it is, remember to post the first thing. (Don't click until something comes up that you want..lol).  Just highlight the top section, copy, and paste here. I'll go first:

    I did not buy this for myself -- I bought it and gifted it -- to someone here, actually.
    F the Gators!

    Forgot to mention, on the app, you just have to click the 3 dots and select random item. 

    So far it look as though mine is the only CD to come up so far.

    I don’t think I’ve catalogued my CDs. I only have about 15 or 20 left in my possession.

    Great thread idea! Also, in the app you can just go to your collection and shake the phone...it will pull up a random with no need to click the dots

    Awesome, did not know that. I thought this would be a great way of showing off probably more obscure releases on people's collections and bring to light some recordings that we may have not thought about in a while and maybe listen to.

    I'm not sure how to do that random thing yet. So I just scrolled and stopped.

    I was using the random function religiously at the start of quarantine. Made it a point to listen to at least one random spin per day...got three months (181 albums) in before I fell off
