Little Earthquakes – The B-Sides is a compilation album by American musician Tori Amos. Originally included as a bonus picture disc as part of Little Earthquakes – The Graphic Album, it received a standalone release on vinyl on April 22, 2023, for Record Store Day through Atlantic Records. [1] The album collects B-sides from the singles taken from Amos's debut Little Earthquakes (1992), and was limited to 10,000 copies. [2] The songs were produced by Ian Stanley and Davitt Sigerson, both of whom also contributed to Little Earthquakes.
Some songs released as B-sides were not included. "Here. In My Head" does not appear on the album, nor do Amos's covers of " Smells Like Teen Spirit", " Angie", and " Thank You" (all of which appeared on the " Crucify" single).
Little Earthquakes – The B-Sides reached number 173 on the Billboard 200. [3] It also peaked at number 24 on the Top Alternative Albums chart. [3]
Consequence called it one of the "30 Must-Have Releases" of Record Store Day 2023. [1] The Current included the album on their list of "25 Special Releases" highlighted for the event. [4]
Variety included the album on their Most Wanted Exclusives list, highlighting tracks such as "Sugar" and " Mary" and stating, "it's hard to think of many classic albums that had a better set of B-sides than [Little Earthquakes]". [5]
All tracks are written by Tori Amos, except " Humpty Dumpty" (based on the nursery rhyme)
