Do you reckon Travis will ever release a B-sides compilation? It would be a strong compilation. Does anyone have any favourites? Mine would have to be Village Man i think!

I bet if they do it will be called 20 and feature 20 b-sides, including 20 as the very first track

I think they will one day. I'm not too bothered. They're available elsewhere anyway. Would be nice though I suppose. :) I think 20 is certain to appear though not as a starter. I like all 6 b sides from TBWNN. I think they should all appear on a b side album. :) Woo!

I remember Travis mentioning it at the time TBWNN came out so it might happen someday... who knows!

That would be so cool, their b-sides are amazing. My favourites are River and Only Molly Knows.

I'd love a B-side compilation, a complete one though, but then again that would be loads, maybe have a compilation collection, maybe with about 3 or 5 disks or something but if that couldn't work maybe have different volumes, a different one for each album or something.

I really do hope that one is brought out sometime though, it would be a nice addition to their albums and the Singles compilation.

As far as my favourite B-side I would say Blue On A Black Weekend, Mother, My Last Chance, Only Molly Knows, Standing On My Own and The Score are very high up in the list for me.

Oh, was it officially released?

I'd like them to release B-side album some day. I'd like "Days of our live", "River", "The sea", "We are monkeys", "20", "Only molly knows" "Beautiful birds" and many others...phew

No.

The problem would be which b-sides, I can't see anyone agreeing unless it was at least 2 CDs full of songs. I reckon a complete compilation of all of them is the only option, unfortunately :) (maybe they could do a normal and a complete one, that would be good)

We all have our favourites. Some I really love. Some I don't. For example I really dislike The Sea. One of the worst b sides of all of them but from the recent thread we see some people love it. So I agree, a tracklisting would be difficult. Maybe the band could cut it down to 50 possibilities and have us lot vote! :) A complete set would be brilliant. Could be a really lovely little collecters thing with artwork and stuff. Maybe between 6 and 7?

I downloaded a B-side Travis album thinking it was the real thing, it looked like the single album but B-sides. Absolutley loads of song on it, but I'm not that fussed really. Fairly disappointed with the b-sides. Waiting for sumat to jump out at me as I wasn't one of those ppl who buy every single, so I don't know many bsides.

A vote would be awesome! I love a lot of their B-sides, but yes...some are much better than others. :)

I agree, a short list by the boys themeselves and a vote from us! I think mansun did something like that when they released Kleptomania with a B-Sides CD!

I know what you mean, often it's hard to get into any songs when there's so many there. Try deciding on a couple of songs that other people have mentioned and just listen to those two only until you know them quite well. If you like them, great, if not, feel free to ignore any other advice I give you! :)
