Advice on Upright bass lines for a song.

Hello,

Are there any forums at "Talk Bass" where I can put links to MP3 for discussion?

I am producing a old timey country/folk song for the first time. I think it should include an upright bass.

Could you guys tell me what forum to post an MP3 of the song - so that I could get some thoughts on what bass parts might work?

Thanks,

Woods

There is a special part of the forum for Double Bass and for Bluegrass - which might be best...?

Here's a way you all could help me get going with this thing:

Would you all mind posting a song by a group - recorded in the last 5 or 10 years that you could point to as a model for the acoustic bass (especially) but also the other arrangements as well - 3/4 time songs. Just a guide-line sort of thing-something that you could say: "maybe something like this (song) or something like this (song)."

I need inspiration - a kick start - "songs that you could hear Old Country Dancehall being just remotely similar to."

Thanks,
Woods
