Yes, but the practicalities are that when you’re browsing it’s often presented on a 1-2mm wide spine, which is actually hilarious when you think about it. And a most of my stuff is close to the floor, so it’s a hands and knees job.
So now I have gone from this:
To this:
Although I do have to keep the spreadsheet as backup because there are around 25-30 albums not available to view in Roon.
Lists. Clearly I am winging it with my record collection…
Was easy for me, starting from nothing. I have insurance paranoia.
I’ve been listless and shall remain so 
Insurance paranoia spurred me on to list everything (LPs, CDs, Cassettes etc) using the milkcrate app. Bandcamp automatically generates the spreadsheet and the values. I’ve just realised that I probably need to update about 6 months of purchases though…
EDIT: FUCKIT, I meant discogs not Bandcamp.
I use Discogs to archive my record collection. Handily, Discogs provides the current Minimum, Median and Maximum value of your collection based on actual recent sales and a facility to keep notes e.g. purchase price, cleaned by RCM etc. Finally if your record has a barcode you can scan it in using the Discogs app on your phone.
That image suggests that you have under 500 LPs there, so cataloging/storage shouldn’t be too much of an issue. I shudder to think how people with 10K items in the collection manage for storage, let alone cataloging…
I once made a suit for very well known DJ and asked him what his day generally consisted of and he replied with a sigh “listening to music”. I then asked him what he did with all the records and he said they were in 3 lock-ups, floor to ceiling, in crates and that he was just about to get a forth. When I asked if he could find a specific thing he looked at me like I was mad and said that they were completely random and he had thought to employ someone to sort it out but had too many other things to do. He estimated he had 80 or 90 thousand across many genres and his collecting started in the mid-seventies. Insurance paranoia wasn’t a thing with him, clearly!
S’pose he was being more paranoid about Yewtree.
I store mine all over the show in general genres. Spreadsheets are a big fucking no no. Quite tempted by the discogs app though and scanning them in by phone.
Of course, there is always this
My life is complete. i have been asked to audition for the local Morris group. one, two, three, jump, repeat etc…
Audition,i thought you just turned up pissed and moved a bit.
Eating puddings.
Rhubarb crumble with custard, and Christmas pudding cheesecake…
I am very full.
Waiting till its time to go watch Star Wars 
Audition you say? If you would like any pointers then please don’t hesitate to pm.
I remember this one time in … '84 and I had to breath life into a tired old and, dare I say it, amateurish production…
You a morris man Stu - like this?
On purpose? Sober? 
Well, unlike some, I’m not one to blow my own trumpet, but it is all just a bit of ‘hey nonny nonny’ and a ‘nick nack noo’.
Hardly a test really to remember those lines.
