Those Forgotten B-Sides

Even as times rolls by, there are rock and roll singles we all still fondly remember, but how many of their B-Sides do you recall?

For example, most music fans remember The Guess Who’s No Time but what about the flipside of that hit single? How about the B-Side of Elvis Presley’s She’s Not You or The Beatles’ She Loves You?

Well, this medley is going to wake up some memories for you!

      Thank YOU, Wendyl! ❤️
      I imagine most people will remember a few of these songs but I’m also pretty sure they haven’t heard them in a while.
      I’m very happy to know you enjoyed it. 🙂
      XOXOXOXO

    Nice job, Ray! I was mostly an album buyer, so for the most part I wasn’t aware of the B-side. My older brother was a 45 buyer, I on the other hand was all in. Of the 7 selections I think I knew 3. Nice to hear some “new” old songs.
    My favorites today were Buddy Holly & the Raiders. Any Buddy Holly is good and as far as the Raiders go I am a sucker for “origin” songs. (Hey, now there’s a good idea for a playlist!)
    As always Brother you gave me a great start to my day. Rock on!

      Thanks, Don.
      It’s always nice when I an find something “new” for your ears. I like the ‘origin songs” idea. I’ll get right on it!
      ROCK ON, BRO!

    FYI. I listened on my iPad and there was no way to leave a comment. Switched over to my iPhone no problem. ???????

      I can’t explain that one, Don. I tried it on my iPad and had no problems.

    Interesting medley, today. Liked them all, but only remember the first 3 and the last one. Back in the late 50’s I used to get $1/week allowance and went to The Village Music Store & bought a 45 for 89 cents! I probably would remember all the B sides of those(still have some of them up in the attic.)

      Thanks, Pat 🙂
      Any person who spent 90% of their weekly allowance on a 45 is my kind of music fan. I always love reading about your memories!

    B sides the first 3 songs, I didn’t know these. Sometimes B sides are just as good or better than the alleged A side, just my opinion.

    Thanks as always

      I agree with your opinion, Donna. There were times the B-Sides were much better than the A-Side. 🙂
