5.0 out of 5 stars Moby had too much good material to put out, January 25, 2006
"Play" has got to constitute Moby's greatest contribution to the world. When I say "Play", I mean both the original album and this "B Sides" album he released over a year later. Both albums are solid and show without a doubt that he had just too much good material to release and refused to let it sit on the shelf.

The "B Sides" album actually is just as good as the original, so if you liked "Play" you will definitely love this one. There are no weak tracks, so you can be safe with this one.

3.0 out of 5 stars not complete!, February 24, 2008
ok ok this is a very nice little collection of b sides from the Play album BUT where is the song Princess from the Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad single? It's fantastic and admittedly it's not as "ambient" as most of the songs on this album but if it were included at the end it would be a great uplifting way to close this collection. Just my opinion.

4.0 out of 5 stars Moby-Unplugged, August 8, 2006
By G. Lynch "Squire" (N ew York, NY) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
While this is not an acoustic album, most "Unplugged" albums are the artists' at their most basic, Play:The B Sides is Moby stripped-down to mostly instrumental music, basic,simple, pure and beautiful. A rare collection that is great to listen to in the car, at home, or on head phones.

5.0 out of 5 stars Moby's "Play - B Sides"
Great CD for any Moby fan who likes his mellow tunes. Not as good as his "18 - B Sides", but still nice cruisin' music. Great for driving.
Published 5 months ago by D. Colclough

4.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as Play, but still a good album
Play is a 5 star album. This one has some really good tracks and goes well with Play. "Memory Gospel" is one of the best songs on there.
Published on August 22, 2005 by Cameron Coleman

3.0 out of 5 stars Good background music, but kinda bland
While I can't say this is awful, its just not engaging enough to engender a reaction that powerful, I can't recommend this either. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars B-Sides Better Than Many Albums' A Material
I listen to Moby often while I work, and this album is fantastic. Memory Gospel is a beautiful piece of music and it's consistent with the tone and idea of "Play". Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars "B Sides" gets an "A." Fabulous ambient, great trance..
Some people complain that Moby is inconsistent, but they'd have little case for it on this disc. As a whole the album is a wonderful aural journey. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely beautiful !
A "B Side" is like this. A record and cassette tape has an A SIDE and a B SIDE to it. The B Side tracks are simply the other side of the album (CD) where you can hear everything... Read more
