    The Beatles had a few good ones, as did The Smiths, and The Jam.

    but Oasis has had more great b-sides than all of them combined; i.e. (not listed from best to "worst"):
    D'yer Wanna Be a Spaceman?
    Cloudburst
    Up In The Sky (acoustic)
    Listen Up
    Fade Away
    It's Good To Be Free
    Half the World Away
    Talk Tonight
    Acquiesce
    Headshrinker
    Rockin' Chair
    Its Better People
    Round Are Way
    The Masterplan
    Step Out
    Underneath the Sky
    Stay Young
    Let's All Make Believe
    Thank You For The Good Times

    maybe you should listen to the songs before judging them. :rolleyes:

    even the least bit of research will show that oasis' b-sides of the 90s were for the most part better than the album tracks.. and thats saying a lot. ;)

    well lizard queen...

    in the good old days of vinyl records, albums were divided into two sides, side A and side B, the A side was the single that was on release, but they band generally did a track on the B side of the record, which was a bonus because it didnt always make any main album of theirs

    it was used in a big way about a year or so ago, to try and encourage single sales against the treat of downloading.

    ironically in a lot of cases the B side was a darn sight better than the A side

    in the case of cd singles, the B side was used to denote any track which was not the main release single
