They are bonus tracks on the TWO WHEELS GOOD CD. It's a shame they weren't included on the double edition of STEVE McQUEEN. But Prefab Sprout should compile a CD of B-Sides... they have many more... all excelent songs like DONNA SUMMER, TORNADO, RADIO LOVE, SPINNING BELLINDA, SILLOUETTES, LIONS IN MY OWN GARDEN, THE DEVIL HAS HIS BEST TUNES and others... (the last two songs are seven inch A sides). - ----- Original Message ----- From: "J.
