B-Sides is a 2-disc compilation album by the British glam rock band Slade released in March 2007.[1] This was the first time many of the songs included on the album were released since the early 1970s.[1]
Since the late 1980s, the Slade fan club had confirmed that a possible project was the release of a b-side compilation although this never materialised.[2][3]
Digital masters were supplied for a number of the earlier B-sides by Ian Edmundson, who is credited in the CD booklet. Some needles drops were used from copies of rare singles supplied to Salvo by fans.
A number of B-Side tracks were excluded from this collection, as Salvo did not want to create a 3CD package. The tracks appear elsewhere as album tracks or bonus tracks on other Slade remasters by Salvo:
- "Good Time Gals" (B-Side of the single "Everyday")
- "Dizzy Mama" (B-Side to the single "Ginny Ginny")
- "My Baby's Got It" (B-Side to the single "Okey Cokey")
- "Hold onto Your Hats" (B-Side to the single "We'll Bring the House Down")
- "I'm Mad" (B-Side to the single "Knuckle Sandwich Nancy")
- "Merry Xmas Everybody – Live and Kickin'" (B-Side to the single "(And Now the Waltz) C'est La Vie")
- "We'll Bring the House Down – Live Version" (B-Side to the single "7 Year Bitch")
- "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" / "Auld Lang Syne/You'll Never Walk Alone" (B-Sides to the single "Do You Believe in Miracles?")
- "My Oh My – Piano and Vocal Demo" (B-Side to the single "Myzsterious Mizster Jones")
- "The Roaring Silence" (B-Side to the single "Still the Same")
