Pet Shop Boys - Reserve - the b-sides and bonus tracks 1985-2024

[Stockholm monster]

I call my PSB 2010-now b-sides playlist "PLUS", it works for me.
Or they could call the thing "Generously"

PSB fandom comes with a lot of homework, for sure!

Dam right it does but it always pays off. I'm glad somebody else has seen the light and discovered the righest fruits sometimes can be found within their old demo's and bsides. In fact the entire Release FL series is essential listening for any "proper" fan

I doubt there are many on this forum who needs convincing of this.

But a b-side is a b-side...

DAVE. Go to your room!

Honestly, I'm still humming this one days later. I don't have all the FL series yet so I'm picking my way through Youtube for "missing" tracks. I'm amazed by the breadth of their catalogue - there's literally something for everyone. As for homework, PSB also comes with a surprising amount of painstakingly detailed background reading. Luckily, I'm currently inclined to put in the hours.

There's something about PSB that is a new way of listening to music for me and I'm finding it absolutely fascinating.

Brothers in rhythm 7” not Beatmasters

Sorry. Was thinking of I wouldn’t normally…???

How about calling it "Otherwise" ?

It’s a great title and seems to continue with that Englishness from Nonetheless.

Assemble.
