**NOTE:** Despite this being made on Tiermaker, this is not a normal Tier list. I promise, mods. This is rather more of a quick statistic-like post, similar to the least played songs posts I did earlier this year.

It's amazing reading the Discography page on the Wiki and seeing how extensive the band's catalogue is, and that each release has a menu where you can see the number of users on the site who owns said release and in what form.

It's because of that I wanted to see which of their releases can still be obtained today.

This list I found contains 91 releases. Not their entire discography, but a good amount, since these were all released to the public in some form. From their Wiggle Diskette in 1985, up to The World Is To Dig of this year. I went through the wiki to match the names of the releases to the pictures, and then went through Discogs and Ebay to check availability. I then ranked each release based on its availability, as well as check if any rare stuff was uploaded on YouTube by the fandom. They are also in chronological release.

The list did not include anything released by some other band for obvious reasons. It also only focused on the band's releases, so no solo projects or tributes from other bands. TMBG vs. McSweeney's not being in this list I think is due to the fact the band didn't technically release it, but it can be found for secondhand sale.

**Overall:**  
\- 56 releases can be easily obtained, 18 of which can only be purchased to support the band directly.  
\- 21 releases can only be purchased in physical form for secondhand online, with quantities and pricing varying immensely.  
\- 14 releases could technically be found, but they were incredibly limited for any reason. Some of these were also released for free. It would be easier to just go to YouTube and listen, or ask someone if they have an archive.

After doing all this and looking back at this chart, I'm surprised I even have a CD of the Istanbul Not Constantinople EP, it's probably my only "rare" TMBG item.

Hope this was interesting to you all as it was to me. Hoping this chart was done as accurately as I could make it. Would love to know from y'all what is your rarest TMBG release to own, and if you got it a while ago or maybe even when it came out!
