Rock: well recorded bass...60s/70s

whatz up with bass on most rock recordings? is it that hard to get a decent bass sound? must be...as most bass sounds are either a)muddy or b)razor thin...however the bass I found on Santana Abraxas is outstanding though...very dimensional...with a reach out and touch quality...any other recordings that might have this quality?

The goldenear,

I had forgotten about the humble 8 track. I have not even seen a tape in a very long time let alone an 8 track.

A friend of mine told me the other day that his 8 year old son went to see his brother and came back and said "wow uncle richard has these amazing big black CDs"!

I suddenly felt old...

YES its classic kids have no clue about Vinyl. LOL

I grew up on vinyl with my dad and obviously we all hopped on the band wagon with cd's.

happy holidays.

and to be honest i never heard an 8 track before. Am I missing anything?

Thegoldenear,

no idea about the 8 track. I never heard one either! They were slightly before my time, though my dad had one or was it a 4 track?

A very merry christmas to you.
