But it's kind of a bogus choice, as it was never sold to the public.

You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.

50's
Mystery Train
Blue Moon Of kentucky

60's
Just Tell Her Jum Said Hello
I Gotta Know

70's

A Matter Of Time
Pledging My Love

It should have been released to the public on 45 it's a great track.

It should have been released to the public on 45 it's a great track.

But it wasn't.

The 1950s:

I Was The One
Don't Be Cruel
Treat Me Nice

I am not counting Hound Dog/Don't Be Cruel since that record had both sides as a B at one point.

Really ? When was that? If anything it would've been listed as double "A" side.

'50's
Any Way You Want Me
I Beg Of You
I Got Stung

'60's
I Gotta Know
Anything That's Part Of You
It Hurts Me

'70's
Heart Of Rome
The Sound Of Your Cry
Help Me

The 1950s:

I Was The One
I Beg Of You
Treat Me Nice


The 1960s:

Make Me Know It
Ask Me
Do Not Disturb


The 1970s:

Mama Liked The Roses
It's A Matter Of Time
Pledging My Love

The 1950's;


"Santa Claus Is Back In Town"

"Treat Me Nice"
"Dontcha' Think It's Time"

The 1960's;

"Make Me Know It"
"I Feel So Bad"
"Witchcraft"

The 1970's;

"Loving Arms"
"For The Heart"
"Pledging My Love"

Above were all 'B' sides in the U.K. Sun singles were not realeased as such over here. If they had been Mystery Train would have been in the list, but over here that was an 'A' side.

These lists are all over the place!

A great many of the songs listed, while they may have been B sides outside the US, were A sides in the US: I forgot to remember to forget, Money honey, Santa Claus is back in town, I feel so bad, What'd I say, Ask me, Separate ways, I've got a thing about you baby, and Bringing it back.

A couple of the songs weren't issued on singles in the US, though they were issued as B sides elsewhere: Make me know it, Do not disturb).

And One track heart is a US promo B side at best, and Long lonely highway - a European A side - was neither a US release nor a B side.

On the positive side, we seem to agree on a lot of the same songs. Here are the top three in each decade by number of votes (so far):

1950s 8My baby left me
8Treat me nice
7I was the one

1960s 8Little sister
6Any day now
5A mess of blues

1970s 8Always on my mind
6Patch it up
6It's a matter of time

No sign of Fool. Yet.

Where Did They Go, Lord
Always On My Mind

I must say I really struggled with the 70s selections. He had some great A-sides and album tracks in that decade, but the B-sides were bloody awful!

Above were all 'B' sides in the U.K. Sun singles were not realeased as such over here. If they had been Mystery Train would have been in the list, but over here that was an 'A' side.

No fair!

In few of now realising the instructions (thanks for pointing them out Doc) below is my corrected list;

1950's;

Mystery Train
Baby, Lets Play House
Treat Me Nice

1960's;

A Mess Of Blues
Little Sister
Witchcraft

1970's;

Patch It Up
For The Heart
Pledging My Love

"....and Long lonely highway - a European A side - was neither a US release nor a B side."
I may have forgotten, but Long Lonely Highway appeared as a US single c/w I'm Yours. I'm Yours went to no 11 on the Billboard singles charts if I'm not mistaken?

50:
Treat Me Nice
I Got Stung
Doncha Think It's Time

60:
Fame And Fortune
Viva Las Vegas
Witchcraft

70:
For Ol' Time Sake
For The Heart
Pledging My Love
