Favourite B-Side?

[irons1965]

Just been playing XTC 'Rag & Bone Buffet' odds and sods album and realised how much I still loved a lot of these tracks ('Blame The Weather' still sounds wonderful).

So I got to thinking B-Sides...What are your favourites?

'Girls Talk', the B-side of Elvis Costello's 'I Can't Stand Up (For Falling Down).

"Rain", the B-side of "Paperback Writer". The greatest A and B sides of a single ever?

"When a Blind Man Cries", B side of "Never Before" by Deep Purple comes to mind.

Hi,

One of my faves is One Step Beyond by Prince Buster. The B side of Al Capone.

Another is Saturday Night Sunday Morning by the Specials, the (one of songs on) B side of Ghost Town.

Peter And The Pets B side of Another Girl Another Planet- The Only Ones.
Also No Fun (I think) on the other side of Pretty Vacant. Which reminds me I lost all my singles when between gaffs. I lent my jukebox to a mate who 'lost' it. Never got to the bottom of it and he's gone mad now.

 

[Bob McC]

Yes It Is by the Beatles, B side of Ticket to Ride

 

[duncan]

Maximum Joy - Silent Street (B side to Stretch). A typical Bristolian mix of Jazz and Dub.

 

[James Evans]

For some reason Heaven 17 "we live so fast" sticks in my mind, b-side of Temptation.

 

[kasperhauser]

"Hey, Hey, What Can I Do" - B-side to "Immigrant Song".

 

[CJBenno]

Crazy - Ray Lamontagne 'B' side to Jolene

 

[blackholesun]

Three Boats Down from the Candy - side B to Market Square Heroes by Marillion.

 

[merlin]

There Ain't Half Been Some Clever Bastards - Ian Dury.

 

[alanbeeb]

Under the Ivy - B-side to Running Up that Hill by Kate Bush

 

[Caliente]

Sweet's 'Hell Raiser' has an amazing b-side in the guise of 'Burning' with the highlight being a fantastic guitar solo, as such I used to slow it down (to 17 rpm?) so that I could try and copy the licks!!

Eddie Jobson "On A Still Night" flipside of non-hit "Yesterday Boulevard".
