Posted: 1/23/06 at 2:35amThat type of thing drives me mad! It's why I started storing everything on a hard drive and putting the booklets into a book.

Here's a pic of my cd shelf, if anyone cares to see. My Dad made it for my Birthday.

Posted: 1/23/06 at 2:55amI care! Can your dad make one for me? :)

Posted: 1/23/06 at 2:58amHe's pretty crafty isn't he? I showed him a bookshelf from Crate and Barrel, and he took that design, and sized it for cd's. It's great.

mine is exactly the same. except my shelf stacks diagonally so it fits in the opposite way. but, aside from that the packaging is beautiful...

Posted: 1/23/06 at 3:01amYou are incredibly organized! Everything's even alphabetized!
Idina: Somehow I got myself to the stage, came out at the end of the show, and I had some kind of closure.
Some guy: You looked great!
Idina: Thanks...I WAS SO HIGH! 8/21/05

Posted: 1/23/06 at 3:04amOk I need someone to come to my apartment and organize my showtune collection like that. Organized, alphabetized, in order. It's a dream! (sigh).

Posted: 1/23/06 at 3:16amI love organizing cd collections. It makes me feel so focused.
#10re: Darn you Dessa Rose Packaging..
Posted: 1/23/06 at 3:22amthe picture is too blurry, but my CDs are all alphabetized too. I finally gave in when I started not being able to find certain CDs. it's so much better. I almost want to buy those letter dividers that they use to organize CDs at stores... but then I feel like I should have show labels too for some of the shows that I have six different recordings for... maybe I'll do both... I dunno...

I don't know why the packaging has to be so huge. I have the soundtracks to the original Star Wars movies, and they have the same sort of thing (an actual book that serves as the CD case as well), and they fit very nicely with the rest. Odd.
But, either way, its a wonderful cast recording.

Phantom of the opera's film soundtrack has a book like that as well that isn't ginormous.
And I alphabetize my shows by composer...and usually listen to them in order....I'm a dork I know, but sometimes it's fun to listen to a person's catalog.

Posted: 1/23/06 at 10:35amHow come you don't have the Encores version of "Do Re Mi" with Nathan Lane, Randy Graff, Brian Stokes Mitchell and Heather Headley?
If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.
#14re: Darn you Dessa Rose Packaging..
Posted: 1/23/06 at 10:37amLol. I heart you Gothampc. I've heard the recording, but I just haven't found it at a price I like. I prefer the OBC, but do plan on getting it soon.

Posted: 1/23/06 at 10:54amTHe sad thing is, I took that picture of the entire shelf only a few weeks ago, and at least half of one of those shelves is full of new stuff. I have an addiction!
#17re: Darn you Dessa Rose Packaging..
Posted: 1/23/06 at 10:59amWow. I envy your collection:)

Posted: 1/23/06 at 11:26amWhy is Edwin Drood so darn expensive? I would love a copy, but I ain't fixin to shell out 200 bucks for one cd!

Posted: 1/23/06 at 11:28amIt's out of print. There are 2 versions, one with more alternate endings.

Posted: 1/23/06 at 11:37amI need to buy the London cast too, but it isn't my cup of tea.

Yeah, but when you own all the others, you just kind of have to have it. Otherwise, you hear it calling out to you in the night.
