Also, I know you're doing a 1920's double-disc set, but I'd still like to do 1927. (Stravinsky's Oedipus Rex and Blind Willie Johnson, yum yum.)

Jeff, wanna unite our lists and collaborate?
I don't think anyone has truly collaborated on a Go! disc yet, and I think this is a GREAT experiment for this project. Democracy may make us enemies in the end, but I think this will produce a kick-ass 1987 disc... and I think we're generally on the same page musically.
Email me.

Yello "Oh Yeah!"
Orig. from 1985's "Stella", yet only massively popular in 1987 (thanks to "Ferris Bueller's Day Off"). If you are NOT putting this on your comp, I will cheat slightly and snag it.. but only if you're not using it, as 1985 is its "proper" place.

I've chosen to do this one year at a time just for financial reasons. :) (I tend to take these far more obsessively and seriously than most, I think), though I don't mind peripherally contributing to other things on the side where help may be needed.

* 1988 is 90% looking to definitely be a 2xCDR700MB Go! thing ("GoGo!"?) Over a gig, certainly. There's simply too much that i couldn't ignore. Surely will have it done by the end of the year, though hopefully if I could, within the week. But goddamn holiday season and shopping and ILX guests coming into town (Hi, Ned! ;) )
* Do any of the more freeware/shareware savvy here know of a good free normalization tool you can apply to a folder of mp3s or any encoded files?
I ask because, I did a loudness/RMS normalization of the wavs of the 1978 comp before i encoded them, to try and make the mix sounds more "pro" (and i stress the quotes), and I feel it made a HUGE difference in how the mix was perceived. And if there IS such a tool out there, I think it would really give some extra magic to all these mixes you guys are doing.
I'm listening to Daddino's mix on shuffle mode right now, and i often (though not all the time) have to re-adjust the volume every song, which is slightly unsettling (never mind the actual CD itself being unsettlingly brilliant), but unfortunately doesn't allow you to easily escape the fantasy that you're listening to some official 19?? Rhino-or-whatever mega box-set of music or whatever.
Never mind me, though. I'm a bit more technically anal about sound issues like that, and I'm surely the only one who would notice the difference.

Some of it is gonna atrocious no matter what anybody does. GodDAMN Hüsker Dü sounds like total utter shapeless crap on CD.

Bigger problem on MP3: pure analog recordings (i.e. 70s) tend to sound really crap no matter what (unless they've subsequently been remastered and reissued).

* just so there doesn't arise a case where people feel like they're "competing" with each other, which i think would bring out the worst in mixes, imho, since the whole notion of "mix competition" is really silly to begin with* We already have a system in place that allows you to "protest" exclusions from a given year, read above* I think more interesting mixes arise from years that you might, gasp!, not necessarily have as your first choice...i.e. it forces you to do some research and discover things you never discovered before

Again, there really are no "rules". This is just a little community thing, and having people "filling in" the unclaimed years as opposed to redoing another year would make the communal project more effecient, challenging, and fun, me thinks.
I just speak for myself though.
