B-Sides show

Today's show highlighted some of my favorite b-sides and discussed the different types and sources of b-sides: covers, great songs that just didn't quite fit the album, soundtrack contributions, promos, etc. In many cases a bands b-sides were just as good as their albums and deserve a better fate.
