Thanks for taking part. If enough of us do this then maybe our voices will be heard by the Men In Red when selecting the tracks for the album that are the most popular choices.
[EDIT] You can check out the current leaderboard here:-
"Too Good To Be B-Sides" - The Best 20 Travis B-Sides Current Voting Leaderboard
Voting is still open for better results. I will only post here once a week on Mondays from now on to bump it up back to the top if there are no new voters. I think that this is still a very important post to decide which Travis fans think is their best b-sides.
Cheers.
Thanks for voting.

Travis are on tonight doing one of the songs off of Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
I wonder which song out of these that they'll do?
1. Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
2. With A Little Help From My Friends
3. Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds
4. Getting Better
5. Fixing A Hole
6. She's Leaving Home
7. Being For The Benefit Of Mr Kite
8. Within You Without You
9. When I'm Sixty Four
10. Lovely Rita
11. Good Morning Good Morning
12. Day In The Life
13. Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (Reprise)
(Personally, I think that they'd do a mean Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds)
BBC Radio 2 Sergeant Pepper's 40th Anniversary Documentary
Quote: SERGEANT PEPPER'S 40th ANNIVERSARY
Part 1: Saturday 2 June
2000- 2100
Part 2: Saturday 16 June
2000-2100
To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the release of The Beatles' legendary album `Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band’, multi award winning engineer Geoff Emerick heads back in to the studio to demonstrate the innovative techniques employed for the recording at Abbey Road studios back in 1967.
Some of today’s most popular acts, including the Kaiser Chiefs, Razorlight, The Fray and Travis, join Geoff to witness and discuss how he first recorded the album tracks and record their own interpretation of one of the famous tracks, using the original analogue 4-track equipment.
We hear from the artists about the importance of ‘Sgt Pepper’ and listen in on the recording in action to see just how different the experience is for them.
You'll be able to watch performances from this unique event online and by pressing red from any BBC TV channel from 2100 on Saturday 2 June until Saturday 9 June.
You'll be able to see performances by Bryan Adams, Razorlight, Kaiser Chiefs, The Fray, The Magic Numbers, Stereophonics.
As well as Travis, also taking part are:- Oasis, Kaiser Chiefs, The Killers, The Fray, Magic Numbers, Stereophonics, James Morrison, Richard Ashcroft, The Fratellis, Razorlight, The Zutons and Bryan Adams. I've gathered these names together in one place after going through various sources of information in different places.
No information is known as to who has recorded what songs. But if anyone has any information, then please post a reply thanks.
I hope this album comes out on CD, or some good person on here records it to share with everybody please.
(EDIT - I pressed 'New Post' but it ended up here, seems like glitch in the system - If you want to respond to this, please reply in its own thread here in the general chat section, thanks) |
