I am organizing my record collection and I couldn't decide how to alphabetize these artists:
The Jimi Hendrix Experience. Should it be under J or H. Most record stores put them under H, but the band's name starts with J. I also have Band of Gypsys which I guess should go under B, but it also says "Hendrix" on it, so maybe it should be H.
Iggy and the Stooges-Raw Power- Should it go under I for Iggy or S for Stooges or perhaps P for Pop, but it is not attributed to Iggy Pop and the Stooges.
Paul McCartney & Wings- Should it go under M for McCartney or W for Wings
It's kind of a silly question, but I was just wondering how you guys would handle these since I haven't really decided on what I'm going to do.

I tend to go for the first name in the band - so in that case I'd list Jimi under J, and then I, and than I'd do P for Paul. It's just easier for me to follow that way, and since it'd be for personal use - I'd do what was easiest for me. |

If it's a full band, then using the band's first name, so 'J' and 'I' for the first two.
As for Wings... weren't they officially called "Paul McCartney & Wings" for only one studio album? I'd file them under 'W'.

Do you associate them more by the frontman or by the entire band?

I put "Ben Folds" under "F" and "Ben Folds Five" under "B" so I'd say do it similar to that way. But it's your own collection, so do it however you'll remember easier.

It's all dependent on what you call them. Me personally, I'd do them under J, S and W but that's because I refer to them as The Jimi Hendrix Experience, The Stooges, and Wings. Since that's what I call them, that's where my brain would think to go first.
