So my assignment is a self initiated project. I'm designing a compilation album for the Red Hot Chili Peppers. I've been designing some covers for the front and back.

8. Me & My Friends (3:07)

10. Higher Ground (3:23)
11. Subway To Venus (4:25)
12. Knock Me Down (3:45)
13. Taste The Pain (4:32)
14. Fire (2:03)
15. Sexy Mexican Maid (3:23)

3. Tearjerker (4:19)
4. Transcending (5:46)
5. Around The World (3:58)
6. Scar Tissue (3:35)
7. Californication (5:21)
8. Road Trippin' (3:25)
9. By The Way (3:37)
10. The Zephyr Song (3:52)

Pretty decent selection of songs, I would definitely add "Fortune Faded" and "Otherside" though, great tunes!

I'm guessing you are looking at making the CD track listing run in chronological order starting with their oldest stuff and ending with the latest songs, but I wouldn't do that, as the Chili's biggest success, as far as I am aware, has been in the albums since Blood Sex Sugar Magik and Californication, and alot of the songs that newer fans will know will be stuck on disc 2? I'm no Chili's expert so I'm not 100% sure though....

I personally prefer the songs to be in a mixed up order, starting with one with a good intro, and ending with the most "epic" sounding one but I know some people like seeing them in order and looking how the band has changed over time, personal preferance I guess.

Oh and take out "Love Rollercoaster"... horrendous song
