4. Loose Ends--Bruce Springsteen

Uh, how is Marquee Moon an outtake?

Well, I meant the alternate version.
But, discount it if you think it should be.

I would say an alternative version of a song that was eventually released on an album/single a-side is stretching it.

2. Blind Willie McTell - Bob Dylan
I read this as a song by Blind Willie McTell called "Bob Dylan" and nearly shit.

Alright, I never realized that. Noted!
This one has gotta count then.

8. Slum Kids - The Kinks

^^^that's a good one...when I was a kid, before the internets and such, I spent fruitless hours searching for that song...(I first heard "Slum Kids" when I taped the Kinks on the King Biscuit Flour Hour)...

Not even Old Brown Shoe!?

our work is never over, Monday, 11 February 2008 15:58 (eighteen years ago)

"Not Guilty" will be my encore if I ever cover the white album live.

Pleasant Plains, Monday, 11 February 2008 16:01 (eighteen years ago)

Probably won't be many requests for an encore if I did that, tho'.

Pleasant Plains, Monday, 11 February 2008 16:01 (eighteen years ago)

Yeah, it is! I'll never know why they didn't put it on Preservation...

Mark G, Monday, 11 February 2008 17:19 (eighteen years ago)

9. Shut Out The Light - Bruce Springsteen

are we counting b-sides of major hit singles, such as that one? that seems stretching it, too.

10. Mademoiselle Mabry - Miles Davis

you cant really count that, it's a proper song on FdK. all miles stuff is a tough sell here, cause all the sessions got cannibalized so much among albums

24. PJ Harvey --Memphis

kornrulez6969, Monday, 11 February 2008 19:38 (eighteen years ago)

Not even Old Brown Shoe!?

I'm not particularly interested in alternative versions. And I don't even like the finished version (the one on "Past Masters") much.

Geir Hongro, Monday, 11 February 2008 19:39 (eighteen years ago)

What about the finished version of "Not Guilty", do you like that one?
Because I hate it, the Anthology one is way better I think.

our work is never over, Monday, 11 February 2008 19:58 (eighteen years ago)

The George Harrison version I mean.

our work is never over, Monday, 11 February 2008 20:00 (eighteen years ago)

25. U2--Luminous Times

kornrulez6969, Monday, 11 February 2008 20:01 (eighteen years ago)

What about the finished version of "Not Guilty", do you like that one?

I think I prefer the original that was never released. Although "George Harrison" is among his better solo albums overall.

Geir Hongro, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 00:30 (eighteen years ago)

"Black Eyed Dog" - Nick Drake (Does it count as an outtake if it wasn't released due to death rather than artist preference?)
"The Craig Torso Show" - The Bonzo Dog Band
"Melancholia" - The Who
"Jaguar" - The Who
"St. Matthew" - The Monkees
"I Don't Think You Know Me At All" - The Monkees
"Mary" - Pete Townshend
"Feeding Off the Love of the Land" - Stevie Wonder
