I'll start with a diverse quartet of favorite B-Sides. None are particularly obscure, but they may still be [i]new[/i] to many of you...

The Cars - Don't Go To Pieces (B-Side to "Gimme Some Slack" single)
http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?a ... 4A2BA77BA4

Duran Duran - Like An Angel (B-Side to "My Own Way" single)
http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?a ... EE03742D4C

'Til Tuesday - Are You Serious? (B-Side to "Voices Carry" single, also found on their [i]Voices Carry[/i] CD, but not the LP)

Electronic - Lucky Bag (from the "Getting Away With It" CD single)

Amen to that, LIKE AN ANGEL is by far one of DD's best tracks.

Dang it! I would like to come out and meet you but I have to get up early Tuesday morning (4:30AM) and take my parents to the airport. Maybe next time.

Maybe not my very favorites but two that come to mind right now...

A very early and raw rocker off Joy Division's An Ideal for Living:

And the uber-melancholic acoustic "Tonight, Reprise" by the Punkins:

www.djcory.com[/quote]You are insane if you think that is one of Duran Duran's best songs. Now if you meant to say it is by far one of the best B-side tracks maybe, but I don't know the full catalogue of DD B-Sides

Here's 8 that I like better way better than Like an Angel:
Girls On Film
Planet Earth
Rio
Save a Prayer
Ordinary World
Come Undone
(Reach Up For The) Sunrise
What Happens Tomorrow

i thought we were all entitled to our opinions...

WE ARE entitled to our own opinions. If you disagree, say "I really must disagree" or "I really must protest", but it shows poor manners
to tell someone that they're insane for a point of taste. If you like spring water and someone else likes distilled water, are they crazy? In the end, it's still just water AND music. Courtesy and civility make for more engaging discourse.

"Oh look at me I'm covered in punk, covered in new wave, covered in You..."

Portobella - Covered In Punk

Pan, it is one of their best in MY opinion, among MANY great songs,the ones you listed are all great as well.
x-cess, you missed a hell of an 80s party tonight, i recorded the whole night though, i'll post all the sets tomorrow.

Here are two absolute GEMS IMO that have been posted before but not on this particular topic.

I came to know of these from the (then) frequent airplay they used to get on WLIR back in the day.


The first one is a PSB B-side of the ORIGINAL Bobcat Label 12" (Bobby O. Version) of West End Girls.


Here's The Bobby O. Version of <a href="http://www.sendspace.com/file/pksp6o" target="blank">'One More Chance'</a>


The second one is an INXS B-side to 'This Time'


Here's <a href="http://www.sendspace.com/file/6pdnyk" target="blank">'I'm Over You'</a> which unfortunately is a low b/r rather noisy vinyl rip. (I'm happy to accept a better rip if someone has one to post)

"Talking With People That Agree With You Is Like Jogging In A Cul-de-sac" - Bill Moyers

Don't know if I did this right, but here is POSITIVE NOISE's "End In Tears", one of the truly great B-sides...

Just saw this thread - great idea! [:)]

One of my favorite B-Sides is not New Wave (more melodic rock) and not very obscure I guess:
Robin Beck - Jealous hearts (b-side of Save up all your tears)
