Also, interesting thing i just realized while reading this, i always organized my CDs alphabetical, but my vinyl collection is organized by genre on the shelf. No idea why, but that’s what it is.0 -
CDs are organized alphabetically by artist, and then chronologically within artist. (Official Pearl Jam bootlegs are shelved together, in chronological order, after the rest of the Pearl Jam catalog.)
Leading articles like "The" and "A" are, of course, ignored. We're living in a civilization, people.
Bands named for an individual are alphabetized according to the namesake's last name. So Dave Matthews Band under M. Fun fact: all of Bruce Springsteen's studio albums are credited solely to Bruce Springsteen. The E Street Band is only credited on the live albums. It all goes under S. Exception: Ben Folds Five goes under B. That's a sentence, not a quintet named for Ben Folds.
Franz Ferdinand goes under FR, not FE. They are, of course, a band named for the assassinated archduke, not the archduke's own musical project. And anyway, Ferdinand is not a surname. It's the second in a series of given names, the rest of which are never referenced when naming the ardhduke. This is good to know if you're ever on Jeopardy! and are tempted to answer "Who is Ferdinand?" since the rules require only a surname. You're welcome in advance.
I don't own any Alice Cooper, but he/they are an interesting case. It was originally the name of the band. Later, Vincent Furnier took it as his legal name and continued his career as the solo artist Alice Cooper. Strictly speaking, these should probably be shelved separately under A and C but, as a practical matter, I'd probably put them all under either A or under C.
This doesn't affect alphabetization, but I'll just add a public service announcement that Sade is a band named for its lead singer. It goes under S either way, but a lot of people think they are a solo act. Not so. They have five Grammy nominations in Duo or Group categories (and, weirdly-- 20 years into their career-- one for Female Pop Vocal, which was a solo award).
I'm glad we can have this important conversation here.I gather speed from you fucking with me.0 -
I just grouped them by band/artist without any care for alphabetical order. Beastie Boys and Pearl Jam were usually at the top.0

But what do you folks do when the proper name is the band name? I.E:
Matthew Good Band, and later, his solo act,
Matthew Good
Do both go under G? Or does the band go under M and the solo goes under G?"A smart monkey doesn't monkey around with another monkey's monkey" - Darwin's Theory0 -

A fake poster sparks outrage over how to use “The” in CD organizing.Rumors mill is about as dried up as it gets.Next come the movie quotes again
but for real if you put ANY band starting with “The” in the Ts, you’re a monster.0 -
