it's a sad state of affairs when people no longer
know what a b-side is. The music industry is going
down the pan.

damn! youngins don't even know what a b-side is anymore...

What has this world come to?

...awright. time 4 Prince On Vinyl 101! chaosman, pay close attention 2 me:

back in the olden days before cds, mini-discs and all that digitized mess, there was the joy that wuz albums on vinyl. i don't think i have 2 get in-depth about that, so lemme cut 2 the chase...uh, u know how nowadays they have cd singles that just have like one or two trax on 'em?

...okay.

back in the day it wuz the same thing, 'cept it wuz on vinyl.



as an example, i will use the 12" version of "let's work" (which is very tasty)...

u had your [color=blue:73e6f2093d:de89fb7823]a-side (as seen below):



...and when ya flipped over the record, ya got your [color=blue:73e6f2093d:de89fb7823]b-side. note the song. familiar, eh?



well umm, that's all 4 this session. your homework 4 tonight will be 2 listen 2 the b-sides cd, and study the track listings of said cd that are listed in the accompanying booklet. memorize all tracks and what the a-sides were 2 each track.

class dismissed.

Damn Handclaps. I'll give you 5... no wait... $6.00 in cold hard cash for that 12"

And please don't judge the rest of us younger chaps. After all, ask any raver or techno junkie and they'll tell you what a B Side is, and a 12", and a record. Course, most of my peers couldn't tell Parliament from Davis, but I still don't like being grouped with the rest of "them", idiots though they may be, not all of us are like them.

wow, we are gettin old, huh?!

this is just too depressing

Havin' to teach someone what a b-side is

Hey, can I call myself the "educated-youngin" considering the fact I'm very aware of b-sides, vinyls, and all that good yadda. Or would I just be the "youngin-that-needs-to-start-living-in-her-own-time-and-needs-to-stay-away-from-vinyls-and-80's-music"?

Okay, now I just feel awkward and moronic because of that last deal.

Question 1 of the exam: Erotic City is the B-side of which 12" inch??

I was on the bus a year ago and these 2 young kids were talking and the one said "it's so weird my mom has all these RECORDS in our house" his friend looked confused so the kid explained "they're like REALLY big CDs that sound bad..."



we get no respect!
