Your Favorite B-Sides

yes! it freaked me out back then! too cool for school...

 

CCR:

Lookin' Out My Back Door / Long As I Can See The Light

In 1970, In the US - Light is the B side. But I noticed that in the UK , Back Door was the B side.

Both songs are great, but, Fogerty takes it to another level on Long As I Can See The Light

 

The flipside of "Working My Way Back To You" could've been an A-side in it's own right:

 

B-Side of "Elenore."

 

B-side of "I Hear A Symphony"

 

B-side of "I Can't Let Go"

 

The Beatles - Rain

Greatest of them all.

 

Recorded a full year before Phil Ochs' own version. It was the B-side of "Knight In Rusty Armour."

 

B-side of "Radio Radio." I've always liked it better:

Absolutely!

 

Two of my absolute favourite B-Sides are by Kate Bush...

Firstly her version of Lord Of The Reedy River which was the b-side to Sat In Your Lap

 

...And then, in my opinion, her best song of all. Under The Ivy, which was the b-side of Running Up That Hill.


More later... great thread, and am enjoying checking out or relistening to your suggestions. We had an all b-sides vinyl jam at home last eve thanks to this thread.

Peace
John

 

B side to Wire's I Am The Fly is Ex Lion Tamer which is a great track.
