It's very simple: you post a CD you have, somebody requests it. You mail it, and when they receieve it, you get 1 credit. That credit is good to request an album YOU want. That CD is mailed to you. It's a very easy to use web interface that prints the mailing label and everything. I have 5 storage tubs full of CDs that will all be going on this site, so if you want them, join up and be diligent about your requests.

Does this sort of musical education cover famous themes? I'm thinking of the themes from Jaws and Dragnet and such, and other really famous themes that are referenced in other situations (like how my Thai tour guide had his mobile ring tone as the Bridge on the River Kwai Theme
 ).

Sounds like a great idea. I might have a few CD's I can part with.

Dear Flint
I applaud your choice to include of Wipeout in your collection. I do take issue with the artist you've selected for that classic. The song was done originally and best by The Surfaris. If you have a copy of that version, I suggest you add that one instead. If you don't have a copy of that version, please pm me. On a related note, I would suggest other songs from this genre that are as good or better. Miserlou by Dick Dale and the Del-Tones. Pipeline by The Chantays. Mr. Moto by The Bel-Airs. Walk, Don't Run by the Ventures. These are all worthy.

Thanks for the suggestions. As you've correctly noted, this is a collection of songs I actually possess in my own personal collection, not a theoretical "perfect" compilation.
I definitely need to get hold of some surf guitar. Easy enough, I'll just request some on Swap a CD, and it will magically appear in my mailbox! Any other weak points you see, please point them out. I've already found some pretty glaring holes in a 1000+ disc collection. Didn't have any Seals & Croft, CCR, Roy Orbison, Commodores, and the list goes on...

How do you all feel about the music your parents introduced you to? Just asking, because I hate almost everything I was ever forced to listed to as a kid, especially the stuff my parnets told me was good or "a classic"...... but then maybe my parents just had crap taste and all y'all's kids are lucky.....

My 78-song compliation from earlier in the thread was from August. I'm working on a sequel or possibly just a multi-disc set encompassing the earlier material and adding to it.
