Most of the Bluenote obsessives are OK and mostly harmless. I remember one group who, from a picture of Lee Morgan sitting in the Bluenote stockroom, surrounded by boxes of LPs, managed to work out (from his suit) what the year and month it was, and what records would have been in the boxes. Don't ask!
I did encounter one who was desperate to get a good vinyl copy of Dexter Gordon's "Clubhouse", way before the RVG reissue progam. I had such a copy and refused to offer it up. He told me he'd been in Vietnam and knew how to kill with certainty "with just two bullets, one to the head and one in chest". I hoped he was joking but he kept texting me for months...
