The B Sides CD

Following on from another post about turds on each album ...

I consigned the B Sides CD to the 'hardly ever listen' pile a few years back. I dug it out last night to give it another try, but immediately remembered why I binned it the last time round.

It really is a warm pile of steaming poo. Anyone else similarly repulsed by it?

are you joking? it contains some of his best tunes ever.
the only negative thing I can say about it is that these
b-sides deserved to be released in their original format
and not in edited form.

even better would have been a double album including all
the b-sides in total.

Full versions of:

She's always in my Hair
Feel U Up
Scarlet Pussy
Shockadelica
Hello
Escape
Another Lonely Christmas

Totally agree. If only all of the b-sides had been included, in their full-length versions, then it would have been perfect.

How anyone can call an album with "She's Always In My Hair" and "La, La, La, He, He, Hee" a "pile of steaming poo" is beyond me!

I bought the box set when it first came out, but I never listened to the B-sides. I just wasn't interested...then after many trips to Berlin's Prince Night (Chicago) I fell in love with 17 Days and asked my (then) boyfriend what song it was and where I could find it. He was like, "You have the cd, dumbass, it's on the B-sides."

After that I was hooked. There are a few I regularly skip, but overall they rock. I agree with the suggestions that ALL of them should be released in full-length.
The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp.
