Song-of-the-day list (songs by recording day!)
Posted: Fri May 20, 2011 12:22 am
Hi everybody,
Recently I noticed that one of my favorite songs was actually recorded on my birthday. That brought me the idea of building a "recording of the day" list, i.e. a catalog of nice danceable songs sorted by recording date.
Essentially, that gives you a special song for each day, to build your set around, or as a very special birthday song: "Hey look, this song was recorded on your birthday" is a fun thing I guess. But of course it should also be good for a birthday jam then...
Anyway, I was wondering if anybody here has rather complete recording information of danceable songs, or knows of some web site that has swing classics and allows browsing by recording date?
So far, I've usually only been typing the year into my id3 tags from the liner notes, if at all...
