There are some absolute killer b sides out there, Many that deserved to be on the final cut of the album. Anyone care to shed some light on some of the better ones?

I'm Five Years Ahead of My Time
, killer track one of my personal faves, well worth downloading, why it never made any of their albums, maybe 'cos they thought it was to ahead of it's time for people to get it
Skid Row

Forever
- One of the best songs ever by this band, definately top 5 and it has hit single potential, why it never surfaced 'til their greatest hits album, nearly 10 years afte being recorded i have no idea.

I believe that Revolution and I Am the Walrus were released as B sides of singles of the Beatles, but they were released on albums. One of the best tracks I've ever heard that never made it to an official album of any band is Shadow of Your Love by Guns N' Roses.

Well I didn't know that! Very funny
I think two great b-sides are "Acquiese" by Oasis or the Vines cover of "Ms Jackson"

Well it was eventually released on "Lost Dogs" but "Footsteps" by Pearl Jam was always one of my favorite songs that only the diehards knew.
Oasis always puts out great b-sides also. Masterplan, Talk Tonight, Rocking Chair.
I also seem to recall Tears For Fears releasing some great extended singles during the Songs From The Big Chair Era.

Erotic City by Prince. It's one of his most famous songs. It was a b side that didn't make the Purple Rain album.

Iron Maiden- Burning Ambition.
Manowar- I Believe.
Hmm, that's all I can think of. Most bands I know are too kvlt to release singles, so there aren't many b sides.

I can recommend the B-side album Incesticide by Nirvana, which the best song is Sliver.

Def Leppard and Oasis regularily put out b-sides which surpass the single their bundled with
Check Retro Activ and The Masterplan, both bands, eventually, released these b sides on albums...

Bon jovi "Edge Of A Broken Heart" wouldve easily been a top 10 hit if it had made Slippery When Wet and is one of Bon Jovi's biggest regrets.

Mercy - U2
Not technically a B-side. It's never been released on any format. It's basically a leaked demo
The Masterplan - Oasis
Not just the song but the whole album.
Yellow Ledbetter - Pearl Jam
is classic. they ended their show in Calgary with it. Fucking awesome!

The Wildhearts have more b-sides than album tracks, and they're all excellent!
The Black Crowes have some amazing ones as well: "Feathers" which was only on a promo CD for the 1995 HORDE Festival is an amazing song.
