Product Description
Album Description
Spanning the full twenty-one years of Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds illustrious career, this comprehensive three CD set, entitled B-Sides & Rarities, presents a thrilling and eclectic retrospective collection of material by the band, some of which has been deleted, featured on a disparate number of soundtrack albums or has never been officially released before. From the menacing 'The Six Strings That Drew Blood', through the distraught 'The Girl At The Bottom Of My Glass', the fragile beauty of 'Little Empty Boat', the outlaw romance of '(I'll Love You) Till The End Of The World', the plaintive 'Bluebird' through to the murderous attack of 'The Ballad Of Robert Moore & Betty Coltrane', long term Bad Seeds aficionados, recent converts or the merely curious will find much to appreciate and enjoy in this landmark 56 track compilation. Mute. 2005.

Great for fans,
By B&B services (Nova Scotia, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: B-Sides And Rarities (Audio CD)
great variety of music over Nick's career, some versions I like better than the " original". I particularily like disc 3, with Little Empty Boat, Shoot Me Down, and Nocturama, among the standouts. Highly recommended to both new and longtime fans.

Still things that we like about the Caver,
By Peter Allen (Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: B-Sides And Rarities (Audio CD)
As a long time fan of Nick Cave, I can say I bought this CD with a bit of trepidation. I'd heard many on the tunes elsewhere - bootlegs mostly. I bought it anyway, and suprise, what I hadn't heard has been wonderful! A wide range of his musical & personal growth is covered here - about 55 cuts in all, from the earliest days onward. Many are brilliant, (while humourous, or raucous, or tender, or ribald or sad; of course there are some sad songs here) and the less brilliant ones are interesting, if only as a representation of the Caver's eclectic sensibilities.Who cut them, or how they got cut from the LPs is a mystery, and damn hard job! Buy this CD.

dylan,
By MR DYLAN M JACOBSEN (Delta, British Columbia Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: B-Sides And Rarities (Audio CD)
brilliant. cave is the greatest australian song writer ever ( all though few people will refuse to even think of nick cave when considering top australian artists) let it be known anyone who can not get into this album or of nick cave in general is simply not a fan of music or art. there are some great reworkings of cave classics and some brilliant covers delivered in his own special nick cave way . other bad seeds members also so well in many songs ( mick). the b-sides on the album were not left out because they were bad songs but more likely that they diddent fit into albums well enough for caves standards. it must have hurt putting these songs away to collect dust because some of them are real gems. BUY THIS ALBUM.
