Comments

• This appears to be either an alternate or incorrect title for Time To Play B-Sides!.
• A pretty straightforward compilation of the WB era b-sides. Should be a welcome addition to the collection of people who missed 'em the first time around. However, a large number of tracks from this era remain for new fans to search out since it looks like this compilation ignored his many guest appearances from these years. There's easily enough material out there to justify a second volume.
  Sound should be pretty good as most of the tracks were undoubted dumped straight from CD to CD. I hope they used a CD source for Do You Know What I'm Saying?, tho, instead of the (slightly) more common vinyl.
  Night Time and Really Mystified are presumably culled from the IB reissue. Why?
  I Hope You're Happy Now may be a bit out of place chronologically, but given its rarity, it's a welcome inclusion. The "cashbox version" of Complicated Shadows is conspicuous in its absence. Too bad the rarest b-side from this era is the one that didn't make the cut.... - T.J. Young
