I know it’s not what you are referring to but I do have multiple duplicates / triplicates etc… where I had the vinyl, upgraded to CD and then had to buy the remasters, the surround sound discs (Yes Panegyric and XTC’… still unplayed as I haven’t ever got a surround sound system) etc… Yes I have a small OCD issue.

I’ve taken to filling in a few gaps in my original vinyl collection, even if I have a CD of the release. I just really love the 12” format, and recently tidied up my whole collection and thought I needed to back fill a few glaring omissions.

I’m not completely compulsive and would never go out and buy different variants of the same new release, but sometime I have ended up with both vinyl and CD, although not bought at the same time.

While sorting out my records I did find I had 5 different releases of In The Land Of Grey And Pink (vinyl) and of course a couple of CD copies. It’s a masterpiece and I make no apology!
