Terence Trent D'Arby - Perfumed Pavilion (The Motion of my Memories)
It's one of my favourite records not just of his but of anyone's, and yet it's never even made it onto an album and into mass circulation. (I can't even find it on YouTube/Last.fm/etc - sorry!) It was the b-side to one of the CD singles of Do You Love Me Like You Say. Dear old Tezza should've given it a place on Vibrator, though, I think. Would've fitted nicely on that album.

I don't know if this counts as "mass circulation" but that song is on the two disc version of his Greatest Hits album.

Hmm, this will require some deep thought. Off the top of my head I would say:
The Rolling Stones ("Congratulations," "Child Of The Moon") Elvis Costello ("Getting Mighty Crowded") The Jam ("'A' Bomb In Wardour Street'," "Smithers-Jones," "Liza Radley," "The Great Depression") Blur ("Ultranol," "All My Life," "All We Want")

When I first heard this on a bootleg I assumed it was Vedders mumbled rendition of a 60s Hendrix/soul cover.

the thing is there was a time where the B-side was a badge of honor, now, it doesnt even really exist, yet another thing that digital dowloads have reduced music too. But i still consider the Europe kings with cd singles on bands from the 80's that still record, i mean countless bsides,demos,live tracks,alternates etc...though this has been slowing down in recent years with digital downloads becoming more prevelant in the European Market.

I remember back in the day, Living Colour's Cult of Personality CD single had great covers of James Brown's Talkin' Loud (And Sayin' Nothing), and Hendrix's Burning of the Midnight Lamp on its 'b-side'.
