In fact all those great C-64 tunes are already available for a long time now on the internet. So called SID-Players emulate the original sound chip, but they play the songs mostly in mono, or the voices are very harshly separated. So I did my own stereo mixes, added equalizer as well as reverb and did some mixes of my all time favourites.

As always choice is subjective. Martin Galway and Rob Hubbard are strongly overrepresented, because they knew better than anybody else, how to get the most out of the three voices (!) the sound chip could create.
