If I don't own, or can't borrow, the CD, then the song won't get on my CDR even if it would have been a great choice. I wish I could afford to buy everything suggested!I've been recording DIY compilations since the 1960's starting with reel-to-reel tapes, then cassettes, and finally CDR's since 2000.
This Basslines Mix has been the toughest mix to compile since many basslines I like are partially obscured by the other instruments so are not easy enough to hear. And since there is a bassline in almost every song, my 1500 CDs would have maybe 20,000 basslines to choose from!
Thanks for some great suggestions so far.
If I use one of your suggestions I'll send you an e-mail offering to snail-mail you a free CDR of "MY Favorite Basslines" Mix when I finally get it done.
