4 out of 5 stars Very Good Collection.......2006-04-07

The remixes alone are worth the price of admission for this disc of Psychedelic Furs' rarities and b-sides. However, if you want to delve a little deeper into the back catalog of the band and have an open mind to their less "commercial" sounding material, this is a great CD for that, too. "Badman", "Birdland", and the highly unusual version of "Mack the Knife" are standout tracks among the fare that was not used for the albums, but everything here is good and quite a notch above similar compilations for lesser bands. The Shep Pettibone remix of "Shock" is one that begs for the radio to be turned up to 11. Recommended!

4 out of 5 stars Well worth it.......2005-07-06

I always approach "B-Side" and rarities albums with a certain degree of skepticism, wondering why the songs weren't included on the original studio albums. However, on this album, it is quite clear that the answer to that question is they should have been. The Cure-like "Badman" is a superb song, I really don't know why the band couldn't find room for it somewhere. I also like "Aeroplane," "Birdland," and the uncharacteristic "I Don't Want to be Your Shadow." The Furs version of "Mack the Knife," has to be one of the most unusual covers of a standard ever made.

As far as the alternative cuts go, I honestly believe that the dance version of "Goodbye" is better than the original. The other alternative versions are quite listenable, although the eight minute version of "Heartbreak Beat," one of the bands best songs, seems excessive. "No Easy Street" is energized in this live version, and offers solid proof that the Furs were not only a great studio band. In conclusion, all those who consider themselves Psychedelic Furs fans, should have this album.

5 out of 5 stars "Beautiful Chaos".......2003-12-13

Casual fans of the Psychedelic Furs will probably want to pass on B-sides and Lost Grooves for the title is exactly what it is. More serious fans or those who want to start getting into the music of the Furs will appreciate this collection. With rare tracks and remixes from 1982-88, there is not one filler or inferior song in the bunch. All the non-LP B-sides are more than album worthy and the remixes are excellent. Even the 7:20 "Shock" remix is worth one's time. The live version of "No Easy Street" is wonderful.

To me, the real gems are the B-sides which start off this CD. "Aeroplane" (B-side to "Love My Way") is the epitome of the "beautiful chaos" of which Arthur Levy writes in the informative CD booklet. "Birdland" (B-side to "All That Money Wants") is as good as most of the tracks on any Furs album. "New Dream" (from the "Heartbreak Beat" 12") is a nice, lounge-sounding song. My favorite, however, is "Badman" (from the promo "Should God Forget" 12"). "Badman" is a haunting rocker that is one of the best Furs songs I have ever heard. Finally, this CD was put together with much care, with release dates and sources for each track and a nice 7-page article.

4 out of 5 stars "Angels Don't Cry" makes it worth it ..........2001-03-19

Unlike *real* albums you can't listen to it cohesively in one listen as it is really a collection of songs from live tracks to remixes and oddities. Most songs are just different versions that would cater to the dnce or remix enthusiasts. But the real gem here is "Angels Don't Cry". This version is much better than the Midnight To Midnight version and this song is one of their best tunes, musically speaking. I don't know why this wasn't as well-promoted as a single as the other Furs songs. This is right up there with other Furs classics. Considering the cheap price of this CD, imagine you are buying an Angels Don't Cry single with all these bonus tracks. Then it will be worth it for you ...

5 out of 5 stars Tears flow down..........2007-07-19

everytime I hear the change in Western Union Man, every song on this cd is great with the exception of Lonnie Liston Smith's tune (you never can tell what you'll get from him).However, that happens to be the only flaw on this cd. Spooky and Scorpion are amazing songs and practically sell this cd themselves. This cd is a must have, Turrentine, Green, Donaldson, Wilson, enough said.

5 out of 5 stars A second helping of juicy funk!.......2000-06-02

A great companion piece to Blue Notes "Rare Grooves" CD. More hard to find gems, this CD is a great sample of the music from the short but sweet "boogaloo" explosion of the late 60's/early 70's.

This music is interestingly back in style, with bands like Galactic, Greyboy Allstars, MMW, and others laying down the "big organ" sound at a local venue near you.
