I Do Like To Be On The B-side.

[Alan Medic]

I quite liked the Beatles 'I am a walrus '.

NOOOOOOOOO

Sorry I thought that was rubbish :(

[Jah Lush]

I'm rather fond of it myself. Not sure you can call it a B-side though as it was part of the Magical Mystery Tour double EP.

[Alan Medic]

It was the B side of Hello,Goodbye as well as being on the EP.

"I Just Threw Out The Love Of My Dreams" by Weezer - back when they were good, 20 years ago.

It was a B-side to "The Good Life" from Pinkerton...

[Jah Lush]

As Long As You Tell Him was the B-side of the last Faces single - You Can Make Me Dance, Sing or Anything (Even Take the Dog for a Walk, Mend a Fuse, Fold Away the Ironing Board, or Any Other Domestic Shortcomings) and shows what can be done with a simple lyric, some great singing and some superb sympathic musical accompaniment. Nice pedal steel solo Ron, lovely Hammond B3, Mac.

Carry Me Back To Old Virginny by Ray Charles- B side of Georgia on My Mind

[malumbu]

I've got a least a couple more

This was a B side because the Beeb wouldn't play it.

Not his greatest moment but this bloke was proabably the biggest influence on the next generation of comedians.

Enjoy

Love this thread. Meanwhile, back in 1974 when I was very sweet and na?ve, I fell in love with Terry Jacks 'Seasons in the Sun', the B side of which was the achingly sad song about his dead dog, but was titled "Put The Bone In". I really had no idea.

 

[Jah Lush]

Ha ha! Are you quite sure that's not a euphemism Peckhamrose?

Anyway, this was the B-side of White Punks On Dope.

Oh let's de-trendy this thread. Classic b-side an the real reason Funky Moped got in the charts...

 

[LadyNorwood]

B side to The Goodies 'Funky Gibbon' was this delightful ditty - I used to prance about the house singing it...

Pay attention Quids, Malumbu has done that one already.

[Jah Lush]

Sticking with comedy for the moment, here's the classic B-side to the Bonzo's Urban Spaceman. The utterly glorious Canyons Of Your Mind.

Thanks PD. I'm eagerly awaiting your choice of B-sides, seeing as you're a sometime record dealer I'm sure you'll have some good-uns up your sleeve.

Here's another - B-side of The Upsetters Return Of Django. Check out the riddum on Dollar In Teeth.

 

[Parkdrive]

The b side of Monkey Man by the Maytals , better tune in my opinion, just for you Jah

[Jah Lush]

It won't load PD, so I've fixed that for you.

 

[Parkdrive]

Another B side, the flip of Didn't I blow your mind by the Delfonics, great modern soul tune played quite a bit on the mod and northern soul scenes

[Jah Lush]

B-side of Paperback Writer.

 

[Jah Lush]

B-side to Anna.

Something much more recent - B-side of Taxi Cab.
