"Which artists' discographies are a pain to collect?"
I was going through Miles Davis' discography on Spotify the other night and due to the vastness of his output, everytime I scrolled down to the bottom, more albums would start loading. Now I wasn't shocked since I know Miles was prolific, plus I know record companies have been milking his stuff heavily ever since he died. It did, however, make me think that it has to be a pain to build up a collection of all his material; especially if you're a completist that has to even have all of the deluxe editions and box sets that have dropped since his death.
With that said, which artists discographies are a pain to collect?
Not saying you don't enjoy the hunt but you basically have some difficulties collecting their material for various reasons. Either they are an obscure artist or they are a known artist with a couple of obscure albums buried within their discography of popular albums or they are super prolific to the point that it hurts your pockets, etc. I'm interested in OKP's opinions on this.
