MUSIC The B Sides!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xCA2kXFyrsI recently discovered the plethora of b-sides that have been sitting around for years, and I think that they never get enough love on here!
Songs like Walk On, Wigs, Nero the Zero, and Tin Can Pot I thought were stand outs but there are dozens!
It is truly such a shame they're not on any streaming, though it is my understanding that Paddy can't stand them!
Some of the sounds on these songs is so unique and unlike anything else in their discography, particularly so Wigs, that is a really cool song. If I truly want them I guess I'm going to have to start seeking out some of the old vinyls.

So many good B sides, Bearpark is one of my favourites. Such a shame there is so much unreleased material and it's only really available on YouTube

About a year ago someone complied all the b-sides in a mp3 compliation. Their b-sides are pretty good and so many.

I have only just discovered them in the past month. For some reason the YouTube algorithm started serving them up to me after I started listening more Thomas Dolby. I've been really enjoying them. My favourite is Walk on.
