Does anyone have a complete list of Prodge B sides? Is it /possible/ to
compile one if there isn't? I'm not too interested in remixes and live
performances (they all sound like Keith screaming "RHYTHM RESPONSE" to me
:) ), so that narrows it down a bit.
I'm pretty sure this isn't on the FAQ, but I'll double check.... nope.

OK, B-Side list with remixes, mixes and lives ommited. These are the
British singles. I dunno the others. There are singles missing, but
that's cos they don't contain any B-Side originals.

I hope this is read-able on your news prog :).

The FAQ's all very well, but it didn't tell me anything I didn't already
know about the B sides. I wondered if there were any rarer ones that
/weren't/ in the FAQ.

By the way, is that Benny Blanco (I think thats what its called) mix thing a
"proper" Prodigy track? If so, that's one B side, at least, thats not on the
FAQ....

That's just a live track. Never released. In b-side form or any other
form.

Yes, for a COMPLETE list of B-sides on Prodigy singles, you certainly
could. No-one else in this thread did such a thing.

This is why I point people towards the Prodigy FAQ - to save the
bother of someone else writing incomplete answers.

I gave an FAQ pointer. The problem about the FAQ is it doesn't
specifially mention the b sides... just the tracks on the record.

I mentioned both to him for the fact that RAN's list may be
incomplete. You can calm down now.

I did do it from memory. I'm trying to think what I've missed, but the
only things I can think you may mean are:

Other mixes/remixes of the A side
Other mixes/remixes of an Album track and
Live recordings

which he asked to be ommited.

I think I spelt Throttle wrong, though.

Why didn't you ask for that then?

It's a live Prodigy track that does exist. I'm not sure what
"proper"ness you're looking for.

>If so, that's one B side, at least, thats not on the FAQ....

It's not a b-side, or anything. It's not on any official Prodigy
record at all.

You can work out what the B-sides are, if you have common-sense...

Tell us how many he missed. Go on, post a list of all the B-sides.
According to your own mother-fucking FAQ, the B-sides are:

We Gonna Rock
Android
Everybody in the Place

Pandemonium
Your Love

G-Force
Crazy Man
Rip Up the Sound System

We Are the Ruffest

Rythm of Life
Full Throttle

Scienide

The Trick

Same here, it's not on mine either.

Story is...

XL brought out a 5-track version of EITP (as listed in the FAQ) on CD,
they then realised that it may not be illegible for the charts, IIRC,
so they chopped 'Rip Up...' from it.

So these early EITP CDs are very rare and coveted!

OK then. Fire away. All the B Sides, and the demo trax - basically
everything that's not Live, or a remix.

These live-only tracks? Absolutely loads! Probably around 20 of these
little gems.

>Or at least, give me a list of

Right, here's an incomplete list. Some names used aren't neccessarily
the 'official' names (usually because there are no official names for
them!):

Benny Blanco
Benny Blanco (Remix)
Break And Enter (punk version)
Break And Enter (Vocal mix)
Break And Enter (metal version)
Brown
Claustrophobic Sting (beta version)
Diesel Power (without verses)
Ghost Town
Now Hear Dis
Ride The Rhythm
Rock N Roll
Rock N Roll (98 version)
Serial Thrilla (beta version)
Speedway (breakbeat version)
SMBU (beta version)
Voodoo People (Prodigy Remix of Chemical Brothers Remix)

Oh no prblem, thank you BTW. Is this one I missed 'Rip' or are you
talking about GOA? Cos GOA's a mix of the Heat. That was my
justification for leaving it out.

Exactly. And I didn't even try to take the piss out of PT for doing the
"read the FAQ" thing. Thanks RAN for not referring me to the FAQ anyway, but
I'd better remember that in future if I want Prodigy info I can't ask the NG
for it and get away without starting a flame war.

Jus' thought - how about Liam's remix of Casanova? Does that count as a
Prodge track?
Someone should get all of these down and try to get them MP3'd. There's
practically no other way of most people being able to get hold of them.

I was just on about 'Rip...'.

Yeah, a good point. It's titled in a way that could fool someone into
thinking it's a new song rather than just a new remix of an existing
song (a la Rat Poison, and Hyperspeed).

One of the good things about America is that they don't have that
stupid chart rule about "You can only have x number of tracks lasting
no longer than y minutes in total".

This is why you get usually good value when you pick up on a US import
in your local HMV/Tower/whatever.

(Mind you, the way America's Billboard charts are compiled is very
dodgy indeed. I would call it complete fixing.)

More 'foreign' music trivia: The reason why Japanese versions of
albums have so many tracks (usually existing b-sides) tacked onto them
(or on a CD2!), is because the Japanese people have later release
dates, so the Japanese labels make sure the Japanese version is really
cool value so that 1) the fans don't buy the non-japanese versions 2)
to make up for being 'late' with it.

I know that Liam had indeed made this but chose not to release because
of Tricky's version, so wouldn't this count as not being a 'live-only'
track, even though it only made the light of day at Reading 98?

BTW, what happened about The Eton Rifles?

Well, yeah. And that's not just the only remix he did for a
band-that-isn't-Prodigy - there's around 10 (or so) more, see the FAQ.

>Someone should get all of these down and try to get them MP3'd.

They already are.

I was intending to have them(*) linked from EN's files area pages...
but that can't happen for certain reasons.

(* = only commercially unavailable ones of course)

>There's
>practically no other way of most people being able to get hold of them.

Casanova's still around in a few record shops, and the remixes he did
for Front 242 resurfaced on a special Front 242 compilation album
which is still out.

Jesus Jones and Method Man have also re-issued Prodigy remixes as
b-sides on recent singles.

Shame we can't say the same for all those unreleased live tracks. Or can
we......?

I originally thought he meant the live unreleased tracks. If you're
looking for mp3z of the remixes, then check out http://travel.to/prodigy
(Is there anything it can't do? j/k)

Hey, great. BTW, didn't mean to fly off the handle.

How come there are such restricting laws on UK singles, anyway?

Yeah but Rat Poison sounds completely different to Poison though, so I
personally don't really think of it as a remix. Are there lots of trax like
this?

I've got lots of the unreleased tracks, from my collection of around
25 different Prodigy live gigs on tape. All the ones I mentioned in
this thread are ones I have (except for the alternative version of
Benny Blanco).

Indeed, the only ways you can get hold of it is:

1) From any live bootleg of Reading 98, which gives you a live only
version.
2) MP3 of above.
3) Break into Liam's studio, which will get you the studio version!

>BTW, what happened about The Eton Rifles?

IIRC, the Jam Tribute thing should be coming out this year, and the
only names I hear about it when it's mentioned on the radio is Oasis
and The Beastie Boys. Looks like Prodigy won't be doing anything for
it after all.

It's not a 'law', but a rule enforced by UK Official Top 40 compilers
Gallup/CIN.

"Arthur Brown" told me that the move to restrict UK singles to 3
tracks and 20 mins was put forward by various managers and promotors
of purely commercial bands (ie: boy bands like Boyzone and the like),
as they found that their poor pretty little darlings were finding it
hard to actually go and put some effort into coming up with some
b-sides, unlike bands that have actual talent.

The CIN bowed to this pressure, and it was passed. :(

Anyone in this coutry can go and release a single with 4 or more
tracks on them if they like. But don't expect to see a chart placing
for it!

(The Propellerheads recently deliberately issued a 4-track single.)

The last Prodigy single (SMBU) was issued before the new 3-track rules
came into force.

Janus Stark's last single (released some months ago) only had 3 tracks
on it. :(

Weeell, it is a remix. Very heavily changed, yeah.

Here's some that have been heavily remixed by Liam, IMO:

EN (and some music magazines) thought of doing that, but it would be
ineffective. It's covered in last year's EN News somewhere.

While you're there, replace his old skool hip-hop vinyls for some
albums by Black Lace, Chas N Dave, Barron Knights and Bay City
Rollers.

Should be a laugh when he does his set at Gatecrasher :)

But our "Woo Haa; Got you all in Check" Single had 6 or 8 tracks, and
that got in the charts.
