So, you’re looking for a complete B-sides & Rarities collection? Sorry, it doesn’t exist unless you make one yourself. So here’s a comprehensive guide to compiling your own 5 CD collection of b-sides, ultra rare songs and non-albums tracks by Babybird and Stephen Jones.

Notes:

• This is a guide to compiling your own rarities collection. I don’t sell or trade any of the CDs below. So off you go to eBay to close those gabs in your collection.
• The collection excludes hidden album tracks (X-mas God of New York et al), shorter edits of various singles, songs that was once rare but later officially released (Drunk Car, Forgot to Take my Pill etc.) and some colloborations (Lightning Seeds).
• The collection includes alternative mixes (US Dead Bird Sings) B-sides also found on albums (Hong Kong Blues etc) and songs dropped from re-releases (King Bing)
• In February 2004, there was talk of a b-side collection on the official site. So don’t hold your breath…
