yeah I had those in my list as well but neither have had 8 albums. For me it feels like they (especially Erykah) have more albums under their belt because they feauture on so many other artists' records. | |

My list:
Madonna Chaka Khan Cyndi Lauper Tori Amos Janet Jackson Mary J. Blige Mariah Carey
Plus lots of other artists who only have 4-5 CDs (Amel, Erykah, Minnie, Jones Girls, Maxwell, Jill Scott, etc)

I have OCD about getting an artist's entire works. Once I decide I really like an artist, I get all their albums. All their official studio albums. I might not get BS remix albums or EPs, live albums, rarities albums etc. So like Michael Jackson, Prince, The Beatles, Zeppelin, Chili Peppers, Stevie, P-Funk, Meat Loaf, Queen... it's crazy. I'm looking through my iTunes library now. There's a lot of artists I own all their albums. | |

I would've mentioned her, but the only thing missing to complete her discography in my house would've been that E=MiserableCalamity²
Ugh!, I will never forgive for releasing that mess | |

Artists that have released at least eight studio albums? That's tough.
Okay, I own all of the (at least eight) studio albums from the following artists:
Tori Amos The Beatles (U.K. releases) The B-52s (if Mesopotamia counts as an album) Björk Cocteau Twins Cranes The Donnas Janet Jackson PJ Harvey Prince Siouxsie & The Banshees

The last Wendy & Lisa album White Flags of Winter Chimney's is really good. Almost as good as Eroica imo. Definitely worth checking out...you might want to look on their website or Amazon, it might still be available on there. |

I'm like that, too.
I just realized I have all of Anita Baker's albums, too. Even that Christmas album.
And Sade.

I'll assume that by "every album" you mean official studio releases, and not including compilations (since some artists can have 5 different complilations of essentially the same songs).
As big of a music fan as I am, I am not generally a "completist." Artists you previously liked or loved can easily put out material that you find undesireable. Though it seems everyone, including me, have some artists who just always pique their interest.
That said, surprisingly, I don't own all Prince albums. Almost all of the official studio releases (plus many maxi-singles, bootlegs, and complilations), but I don't own Rainbow Children or the new album.
Artists for whom I own every album (trying to remember off the top of my head):
Meshell Ndegeocello The Replacements Tribe Called Quest Husker Du Sugar Tony Toni Tone The Police Sade Brand New Heavies Soul II Soul Rage Against the Machine Erykah Badu The Suburbs Pixies Wendy and Lisa Jagged Edge Jaheim Mint Condition
I know there's some more, but can't remember. Most times when I own an artist's entire catalog it's because I really love the artist, but sometimes it just sort of happens.
I'm not including artists who have a single album or very few albums, like, for example, Diagable Planets or Arrested Development.

Micheal Jackson, Sade, Prince, Jamiroquai, Stevie Wonder, Maxwell, Chaka Khan, Roy Ayers and Incognito. I like Jay Kay's weedy little voice.

Hey Harle, what happened to your avatar? Didn't it used to be Billie?
I just realised I no longer have all of Madonna's albums as I gave most of them away lol | |

E=MC² is my least favourite album of hers, I had to buy it though because (and maybe I'm a little biased being a big Mimi fan) I kinda think her missteps are sometimes more interesting than her successes. If you play it enough it will grow on you, it has with me anyway 
Every artist has at least one bad album, so, no.
I stopped buying Prince albums after the Brainblow Chitlins. All you others say Hell Yea!!  | |

You don't have ONE artist/group discography?
Even my brother, who is not big on buying music, has every OutKast, Eminem and Snoop cd. **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

I must admit I didn't see the eight album rule at the beginning. That's a lot of albums. Most artists never release that many. Have to add Tool and Nirvana to my list, two artists who have also not released eight albums.

Blimey! Didn't think this thread would have gotten so popular when I started the beast. The whole 8 studio albums thing has caused a bit of a stir. I went with 8 as it was meant to cut down folk stating everything they own by a particular artist. As some have rightly said to release at least 8 studio albums is a lot by most artists' standards. Just figured it was a good way to gauge who likes what kinda stuff and by who. I could add 20-30 more artists to my original list if it was a case of listing every artist I owned all the studio recordings of but liked the idea of having to base it on artists with at least 8 studio albums in their locker to keep it neater and more of a challenge. Thanks to everyone whose posted so far. Funny how list type threads always prove popular and I love the eclectic tastes we have. No frikkin' wonder peeps can't find loads of common ground with P's output/albums. But then that's why P, the org and P's music is so damn cool and interesting! these are the days of wild........ | |

I didn't see it either. Obviously a few artists on my list like Jesse Johnson, Ta Mara & The Seen, and Toni, Toni, Tone didn't make the eight album rule list. Don't laugh at my funk
This funk is a serious joint | |

I'd think a four album rule would be more reasonable. I understand having a minimum album requirement, since many artists only release one or two albums, and it's no big deal to own all of them.
But, eight seems like too much since many, many artists never even get to eight albums. Four albums shows a decent committment to an artist and usually represents a significant period of time. | |

That 8 artist business completely eluded me when I chimed in. Nothing I posted would qualify.
There's something different about you. | |
