PB digital EPs

[Micodin]

glad they finally available for everyone now. i've had vinyl and CD rips for years. the hey ladies, shake your rump and shadrach extended instrumental jams were a staple in my DJ sets and would usually impress the casual Beasties fan.

[WesleyOHSnaps!]

I added them to my iTunes and I own Love american on vinyl. I’ve never come across Shadrach though so this is nice. Weird though, I have a bootleg cd with some dumb cop and it’s different then this version. Need to dig out the bootleg and double check.

weird. i always thought they didnt include the PB b-sides on the remaster over sample clearance issues. apparently not. i wonder why they omitted them from the remaster.

pretty cool that theyre still releasing harder to find older stuff though, if even material we die hards already have.

They didn't include B-sides on the remaster, and I don't think they are including remastered versions now. They're simply allowing people who didn't buy the HL or SMA singles or the Criterion video anthology to purchase digital versions without buying the hardware.

There’s a little part of me that worries that this is the kind of stuff they had in mind when they talk about having stuff in the vaults.

worst case scenario u are right. i think the "vaults" are the sessions during the G-Son era and TMU era. i think it's a bunch of "jamming" and not complete songs.

but what do i know?

yes, i know. im simply wondering why they didnt choose to remaster the b-sides for the anniversary edition if they are clearly willing to offer up the original b-sides under this pretense.

I was wondering this same thing. Could it be they couldn't release them in a physical form due to clearance issues, but digitally they can get around it? I have no idea.

I don't know, but my best guess is that they tried, and ran into a snag (sample clearance maybe). There was a remastered version of one of the B-sides from Shadrach that was used originally to promote the anniversary edition, and it was from vinyl.

Couldn't you get all those B-Sides with the custom Anthology? That would lead me to believe they just chose not to release them with the remastered Paul's Boutique.
