Sharing some favorite "B" sides of 45's in this podcast. Artists listed in Joel Whitburn's "Top Pop Singles" under A and B. Often these were either alternate versions of the "A" side, or an album cut, and very seldom got airplay. There were a few artists who often had double sided hits, like Elvis (51), The Beatles (26) and Fats Domino (21) but, for the most part, this cast looks at songs that I found listening to other side of the 45's I bought in the late 60's and early 70's. With the advent of CDs and format changes, the phenomenon of the "B" side has disappeared.
