Travis can't. It'll be up to their old record label so will probably never happen.
Also, Walking In The Sun and Coming Around are singles so aren't b-sides. 'Singles' is called Singles because it's a compilation album and as The Distance has been released in no other way. No album, no single etc, i don't see how people keep calling it an album track. It isn't. We never include 'Singles' in our Best Travis Album lists. |

yeah about that,
did Travis give up every right on their older songs to the music company? I also heard Fran say, that releasing a B-Side album would be the old company's job - but why?
I don't they should - but it's their songs, isn't it? Can't they do with it, whatever they want to?
So is Travis literally now allowed to republish f.e. "Re-Offender" or anything else from these years?

| I don't know how it works really but I guess it must be the case with all songs before Ode. They could always buy the rights to some songs I guess. So they might be able to release a b-side album if they do a deal of some sort. Though like I say, I really don't know how it works at all. I think it's a question for Fran. :) Hopefully it doesn't cause any problems. |
