Each month, Eugene Gordin contributes VolumeSessions, a column about music, digital world, and everything in between.

Have you ever wanted to find out what exactly is included in the entire Grateful Dead discography? What about every album My Morning Jacket has ever released? Well you could try looking at iLike.com or Last.fm, but neither site has the detail or sheer size that discogs.com can provide.

Discogs is a site devoted to cataloging musical discographies. With a Discog account, you can add the albums you have in your collection as well as add albums you want to your want-list for others to see.

One of the coolest parts of Discogs is the Discogs Marketplace where you can buy and sell albums using the Discogs site. It’s a great way to get the albums you want that may not be in your local record store’s USED section. It’s a very useful tool so check it out.

Eugene Gordin is the author of interesting finds, a blog about computer hardware, software, and technology in general. Views expressed in VolumeSessions are his own. Feedback is welcome at eugene_AT_gordin.net.
