flipside 07

A few things to mention, like the original ( a side ) post was here, and also with The Sports song 'Poor Mouth' was in fact the a-side ( of a bonus single called 'The Lost Demos' given away with their 'Suddenly' album ). The Gobs track is in fact the "c-side", ie this copy of Right Here ( the a-side ) was a UK double single pack and 'A Little Romance' was side 1 of the second single in the pack. A similar scenario with The Teardrop Explodes, a double single pack, and of course I chose "Bouncing Babies" mostly as a hats off to the song 'I Can't Get Bouncing Babies By The Teardrop Explodes' ( by The Freshies ). Turned out to be a tough choice though between this and the other side of this 2nd record in the pack - "Read It In Books", yep The Teardrop Explodes version of song made more famous by Echo ( actually co-written by Cope & McCulloch ).

Flipside #4

Back for more flipsides, and lovin it, the original Sideroom Singles ( a-sides ) post was here.

The Bodines "Heard It All" was a re-issue of a Creation a-side ( as seen on sideroom #11 in it's Creation form ) and is possibly a remastered version of that, combined with the a-side of Therese this is a super-single !! I love the Bodine mop-top-boy-bob haircuts on the photo !

The Toy Love thing was from an Australian 4-track ep which collated the first 2 Toy Love singles which were released in NZ as seperate 2-trackers. And I have to admit perhaps the Popgun Men b-side is not the best ( unlike the a-side "Behind Dark Glasses" which is a corker ), but really so far the only real dud "flip side" in this project...still lovin' it !!
