Terry Pratchett short story 'The Collector'

There's a Terry Pratchett short story called 'The Collector' (I think!) where Death goes to pick up a 'client' who's a record collector. It includes a conversation where someone asks Death if he's also a collector and does he have the complete Beatles - Death replies, 'Not yet!' I know this story appeared in a collection of fantasy short stories - does anyone know what book that is? Thanks!
