Listening to ALL your music

I found that I seem to be listening to only a few CD's in my collection very often. While it is nice to have "reference" recordings, I found that I am concentrating on sound, not music. So, to counter this, I have decided to listen to all my CD's . I will not aquire any new CD's or make any changes to my system until I have listened to every note on every CD I have.

They are arranged alphabetically, and I seem to be able to do 2 or 3 a night. I have close to 700 CD's, so this should take a while.

Has anyone else done this?

Actually,

I have been finding that I like almost everything I own! Is just that I have got into a rut. My collection is almost evenly divided between classical and jazz.

Right now, I am on beethoven, and am really enjoying hearing ALL the piano sonatas again.

Reminds me when I was in college, I used to sit in the music library with a score and headphones for hours, and study and listen....

Maybe I will go out and buy some scores.

Oh, and I have also decided to get rid of any disc that I can't listen to. So far, I am keeping the 20 or so I have gone through...

Hmm,

Funny, as the underwear drawer does need rotation. Seems with wash all the time, the same ones stay on top..Maybe I should alphabetize my underwear, and go throught them all sequentially...........

A washing machine is a sort of turntable for your clothes. I understand they are working on a digital replacement that promises "perfect underwear, forever..."
