favorite songs you can't get on CD

I would love to get "She's Got Big Brains" by The Wimps on CD. An 80s punk band from Olympia Washington. I heard the song on a compilation tape called "DAMM! Drunks Against Mad Mothers: I have No Friends, I'm Drunk."

I also used to have a recording of "Detroit Chrome Mountain" by the Batfish Boys. Tape got eaten years ago. I would love a copy of that tune.

Someone mentioned near the beginning of the thread "Callbox" by Wall of Voodoo. SOmeone else said it was on the 1st or 2nd album and both had been released on CD. I know it was on the 1st full length album (the second official Wall Of Voodoo album if you count the first EP) but I'm fairly certain that album (Dark Continent) has never been released on CD. I would love to find out I was wrong though.

Heck, if anyone has any of these as MP3s, I would love a copy to burn to my own CD.

There was a Fabulous Poodles retrospective called "His Master's Voice" that came out on CD in the UK about ten years ago. It had Bionic Man, Work Shy, Pink City Twist (sometimes called Think Pink), Chicago Boxcars, Mirror Star and all of their other hits, but sadly, it's long out of print.
