Complete 'B' Sides


Complete 'B' Sides is a compilation album of songs by American alternative rock band Pixies. It features the B-sides for seven out of eight of their UK singles, as well as for one USA single, from the 1980s and 1990s. The eighth, "Letter to Memphis", had no B-sides. These singles are:
  1. "Gigantic"
  2. "Monkey Gone to Heaven"
  3. "Here Comes Your Man"
  4. "Velouria"
  5. "Dig for Fire"
  6. "Planet of Sound"
  7. "Alec Eiffel"
The album's booklet also features commentaries for each song by Pixies frontman Black Francis. Of "Velvety Instrumental Version", he writes, "The title implies that there was a version with lyrics, but there wasn't." A non-instrumental version, titled simply "Velvety", would later appear on Frank Black and the Catholics' 2002 album, Devil's Workshop.
