Avenues & Alleyways: B-Sides, Covers, Remixes

Okay, so it finally stopped raining here and, stuck inside with nothing to do but watch TV, read, load the dishwasher, unload the dishwasher, and watch more TV, I decided I like the Avenues & Alleyways comp more than the official one. I can't remember where it came from, but many thanks to the fella who originally posted it. It has a lot of stuff the C-Sides release has got and then some, including excellent covers: "Cheat" (Clash), "If the Kids Are United" (Sham 69), and "I'm Against It" (Ramones). **As well as, with thanks to Northern Jon for the heads up: "My Life" (Sick of It All) and "The Harder They Come" (Jimmy Cliff).**

Also, I'm glad McCrank dropped by because it reminded me that I had meant to link to a post he did over the summer- Rancid Live in Miami, great stuff, check it out! Also, X Siempre Joven has a demos collection up, haven't grabbed it yet, but someone out there might be interested. Have fun!

The good stuff:

  2. I agree

    I think There are a few tracks I would have replaced on the original.

    Also 'My Life' is A Sick Of It All Cover, And 'The Harder They Come' Is by the legendary Jimmy Cliff.
