In fact, I have included every single b-side that I own from Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea as bonus tracks*– after all, I like to share my “Good Fortune.”Ģ.
Rarities also featured some live radio session versions of b-sides like “30” and “66 Promises,” so of course I have included the originals as bonus tracks. promo CD entitled Rarities, including the ferocious outtake “This Wicked Tongue” (a bonus track on foreign versions of the album, but not here in the U.S.). Also hard to believe: U2 didn’t play “Pride (In The Name Of Love)” that night, but it was back in the set when I saw them again in Chicago a month later.Īs always, PJ Harvey released a ton of great b-sides on the singles from Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea. It’s hard for me to believe now, but I applauded very loudly for Alex Rodriguez that afternoon in his Ranger home debut. Note: the Rangers beat the Angels 3-2 that day. The Dallas show happened to fall on the same night as Opening Day for the Texas Rangers, so I enjoyed a blissful baseball-PJ-U2 triple-header that day. I had flown up to Chicago in December of 2000 to see PJ play at the Old Vic, but it was still a real treat to see two of my all-time favorites share the same stage. The link between two of my favorite artists continued when Harvey opened for U2 on their initial run of U.S. Both albums are classics, of course, but I still think Stories is the superior album. I remember leaving work at lunchtime in order to purchase both CDs at Best Buy, and it might surprise you to know that it was PJ I listened to on the way back to the office. PJ Harvey’s Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea was released back in October of 2000 on the same day as U2’s All That You Can’t Leave Behind.
And since it’s digital, you don’t have to worry about correctly setting the turntable speed to 33⅓ or 45!
In this continuing series, I will share some of my favorite EPs and 12″ singles from over the years in their entirety. As you probably know by now, The Analog Kid lives for b-sides and non-album cuts.
