Title: B-sides quiz.
Description: What be the A-side?


rainmaster - November 2, 2009 10:15 AM (GMT)
Here is a list of B sides, most from quite well known A sides.

A few may be extra tracks from 12" singles, all are UK editions (some US releases were different).

Just name the A side for your points.

Googling is frowned upon here so don't even think of it.
